Unksi Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 OpenOffice.org 2.0.2 is available today. It is ready now in English; check with the Native Language projects for other languages. The release is recommended for everyone. It contains some nifty new features, fixes many small bugs and resolves numerous issues. For instance, spellcheck dictionaries are now directly integrated into OpenOffice.org and are immediately available after installation; there is no need for extra downloads. The community have also added import filters for Quattro Pro 6 and Microsoft Word 2. As well, other import filters have been improved, so that documents created by other applications can be edited in OpenOffice.org more seamlessly. Continuing with the the push to enhance OpenOffice.org's business functionality, it is now easier to use mail merge. As well, integration with the KDE address book is now possible. The appearance of the application has also been enhanced, and for Linux users, there are new icon sets for KDE and GNOME. The result of this and the other improvements is not just a prettier OpenOffice.org but a friendlier and more capable suite.

Quillz Posted March 8, 2006 Share Posted March 8, 2006 I believe this has already been reported. I updated the desktop version last night. I'm waiting for Portable OOo to also be updated.

Quillz Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 So, if I have java on my machine, which one do I want to install? Get the version without JRE. It's 89 MB (as opposed to 103 MB for the one that includes it), and JRE doesn't even seem to be required. I can use OOo Writer and OOo Impress just fine without it.

jedimasterk Posted March 14, 2006 Share Posted March 14, 2006 Quote "The appearance of the application has also been enhanced". Looks the same as 2.01 to me. Don't visually notice any difference at all. Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/440585-openofficeorg-202-released/#findComment-587307555 Share on other sites More sharing options...
