On the other hand, if you look at LibreOffice, the foundation reveals that in recent years, it has gotten 13 major releases and 87 minor releases. This means it’s been two years since it has not even got a single minor update. Although it has received a few minor releases, OpenOffice is still having issues with timely security updates.Ĭurrently, if you go to the official site of OpenOffice, you’ll find Apache OpenOffice 4.1.7 as the latest release, which originally arrived on 18 November 2018.
OpenOffice Calc, on the other hand, can only use semi-colons - a comma will generate an error.Since then, as you can see in the above picture, OpenOffice has no major updates. Excel, for example, will accept both commas and semicolons to separate the parameters of a function, as will LibreOffice Calc.
LibreOffice’s take on Calc is a little more user-friendly to Excel users than OpenOffice’s version, too.
Calc is more than a worthy replacement for Excel and it will be familiar to anyone already familiar with Microsoft’s application. It’s a similar story with the LibreOffice spreadsheet. doc format before importing usually fixes things - but this won’t always be possible, of course. docx files, though, and re-saving in the older. This only seems to be an issue with Word 2007. Things get stickier with more sophisticated formatting, and embedded images in particular tend to upset a layout in an imported Word document. Paragraph styles seem to be the only hitch for text documents and Writer often renders line spacing differently, but re-applying the style usually remedies this. Writer does do a pretty good job of importing Word documents, so those concerned about inter-suite compatibility have little to worry about.
