Synopsis
OpenOffice.org bug fix update
Type/Severity
Bug Fix Advisory
Topic
Updated OpenOffice.org packages that fix RTF file display and KDE/GNOME
desktop integration bugs are now available.
Description
OpenOffice.org is an open source, community-developed, multi-platform
office productivity suite. It includes the key desktop applications,
such as a word processor, spreadsheet, presentation manager, formula
editor, and drawing program, with a user interface and feature set
similar to other office suites.
This update contains fixes to RTF file support, KDE and GNOME desktop
integration, and Indic language display.
Users of OpenOffice.org who work with RTF files, for whom an Indic language
is their primary language, or who access documents from shared directories
via GNOME VFS, are advised to upgrade to these updated packages.
