Berlin, 18 December 2025 – LibreOffice 25.8.4, the fourth minor update
to the free office suite developed by volunteers for personal
productivity in office environments on Windows, MacOS and Linux, is now
available at https://www.libreoffice.org/download.
With LibreOffice 25.2 reaching the end of its life on 30 November, and
the announcement of LibreOffice 26.2 scheduled for early February, this
release is ready for production environments. It provides over 70 fixes
which further improve the suite's performance, reliability and
interoperability. All LibreOffice users are encouraged to update their
installations as soon as possible.
LibreOffice 25.8.4 is based on the highly robust LibreOffice technology
platform, which supports the development of desktop, mobile, and cloud
applications from both TDF and ecosystem companies. The platform
supports both available document formats for full interoperability: the
native, open standard ODF (Open Document Format, ODT, ODS and ODP) and
the proprietary Microsoft OOXML (DOCX, XLSX and PPTX).
Products based on LibreOffice Technology are available for all desktop
operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux and Chrome OS), mobile
platforms (Android and iOS), and the cloud.
For enterprise-class deployments, versions are available from ecosystem
companies with added features and benefits, such as SLAs and security
patch backports for three to five years
(https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-in-business/).
English manuals for the LibreOffice 25.8 family can be downloaded from
https://books.libreoffice.org/en/. End users can access initial
technical support from volunteers via mailing lists and the Ask
LibreOffice forum: https://ask.libreoffice.org/.
All available desktop versions of LibreOffice can be downloaded from the
same website: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/. To improve
interoperability with Microsoft 365, TDF recommends installing the
Microsoft Aptos font via this webpage:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/typography/font-list/aptos.
LibreOffice enterprise and individual users can support The Document
Foundation and the LibreOffice project by making a donation at
