OpenOffice is a dead project. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 3 years ago (1 child) Every time I open anything open office in Word everything is scattered as is usally with the Word meme when moving a picture 2mm. Libre aint much better. Also I prefer the OpenOffice design. Libre might be more modern and that's usually what I prefer but I feel like OO is more efficient with it's menu. Can't beat the menu ribbon from Word/Office though. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] ebits21@lemmy.ca 2 points 3 years ago (1 child) Have you tried the Libreoffice ribbon menu? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Appoxo@lemmy.dbzer0.com 1 point 3 years ago No as my work is using open office and Ihad some issues creating them with libre and then using it in OO. Outaide of that we have M365 and have no need to go Libre as I can't see me spending time to relearn it at work. Sounds good though. If I am ever switching to FOSS in that department, I am willing to take a look. I really like the form options and export to pdf of OO/Libre. permalink fedilink source parent
