OpenOffice.org is a widely recognized productivity suite and a free open-source alternative to well-known programs like Apple iWork and Microsoft Office. It offers various applications, including Writer for word processing, Formula for creating formulas, Database for managing databases, Presentation for slideshow creation, and Drawing for schematic representations.
Recently, OpenOffice.org has released a native version specifically designed for Mac users. This version eliminates the need for the X11 server, making it more convenient for Mac OS X Intel users.
While OpenOffice.org no longer automatically launches a guide to help users select the type of document they want, they can easily access the different applications from the menu bar. This menu includes options for creating a Text Document, Spreadsheet, Presentation, Database, or Drawing.
One significant advantage of OpenOffice.org is its compatibility with the main file formats used in Microsoft Office. This means that users can open PPS or PPT files from PowerPoint on a Mac, as well as DOC format Word documents, using OpenOffice.
