A decent free office suite

Post by JusTertii »

Guys and gals, I can proudly announce that I've *finally* found an office app that produces presentation quality documents.

It's not libre, and *certainly* not open office. Am I the only one who thinks they're only good for making draft quality reports?

It is entirely free and 100% compatible with .docx and so on. It runs perfectly in linux. However, it is browser based.

May I present to you, office.com. This is what linux has been looking for - nobody needs to pay anymore to get decent office software!

viva la revolucion!

if you are going down that road,
then get KingSoftOffice:

it's far better than any M$ office. ..

Oh wow, thanks Pierre! I didn't know about kingsoft. That looks really good, I'll download it and give it a go.

And killer de bug - I'm open to giving Latex a go, but am scarred from one I downloaded a while back. It totally owned me. What version do you use? Do you know any that are reasonably beginner-friendly, or can compile as you write?
