3.0, OpenOffice.org is now able to run on Mac OS X without the need for X11. Thus, OpenOffice.org behaves like any other Aqua application. The cool thing is, while the market leading office suite vendor dropped VBA support and the Solver feature, OpenOffice.org recently introduced limited VBA support and includes a powerful Solver component. In addition, OpenOffice.org integrates well with the Mac OS X accessibility APIs, and thus offers better accessibility support than many other Mac OS X applications. Finally, people like OpenOffice.org 3.0 for Mac OS X because of its very good stability and performance. Reportedly, some Mac users have switched to OpenOffice.org just because of its extremely good stability. </p></td> <td style="text-align:right"> <a href="images/Ooo_on_mac_large.png"><img src="images/Ooo_on_mac.png" alt="mac.png" width="180" height="92" border="0"/></a></td> <td style="text-align:right"> <a href="images/685px-Solver_dlg.png"><img src="images/Solver_dlg.png" alt="dlg.png" width="180" height="158" border="0"/></a></td> </tr><tr> <td><h2> <a name="ODF_1.2_support"></a>ODF 1.2 Support </h2> <p>OpenOffice.org 3.0 already supports the features of the upcoming version 1.2 of the ISO standard <a href="http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/tc<em>home.php?wg</em>abbrev=office">OpenDocument Format (ODF)</a>. ODF 1.2 includes a powerful formula language as well as a sophisticated metadata model based on the W3C standards RDF and OWL. ODF is being mandated and adopted in a <a href="http://www.odfalliance.org/";>growing number of countries</a>. In addition; ODF is being implemented by <a href="http://opendocument.xml.org/";>many vendors for many different applications</a>. </p></td> <td style="text-align:right"> <a href="images/800px-Odf_options.png"><img src="images/Odf_options_small.png" alt="small.png" width="180" height="64" border="0"/></a></td> <td style="text-align:right"> <a href="images/800px-Odf_options.png"><img src="images/Odf_options.png" alt="options.png" width="180" height="128" border="0"/></a></td> </tr> <td><h2> <a name="Microsoft_Office_2007_Import_Filters"></a>Microsoft Office 2007 Import Filters</h2> <p> In addition to read and write support for the Microsoft Office binary file formats (.doc; .xls, .ppt, etc.), OpenOffice.org 3.0 is now capable of opening files created with Microsoft Office 2007 or Microsoft Office 2008 for Mac OS X (.docx, .xlsx, .pptx, etc.). Thus, OpenOffice.org users can interact with users still using Microsoft Office. The various filters for the Microsoft Office file formats also make mixed environments possible, so that some users stay on Microsoft Office while others use OpenOffice.org. </p></td> <td style="text-align:right"> <a href="images/Odf_options_small_2.png"><img src="images/Office2007_open_dlg.png" alt="dlg.png" width="180" height="50" border="0"/></a></td> <td style="text-align:right"> <img src="images/Office2007_writer.png" alt="writer.png" width="180" height="132"/></td> <tr> <td><h2> <a name="Solver"></a>Solver </h2> <p> OpenOffice.org now also has a solver component which allows solving optimization problems where the optimum value of a particular spreadsheet cell has to be calculated based on constraints provided in other cells.

The OpenOffice.org developer community including Sun listened to these users and added these highly desired features to OpenOffice.org 3.0. Thus; now it's possible to draw error bars based on error ranges provided in spreadsheet cells. In addition, it is possible to display regression equations as well as correlation coefficients. </p></td> <td style="text-align:right"> <a href="images/Chart_small-1.png"><img src="images/Chart_small.png" alt="small.png" width="180" height="109" border="0"/></a></td> <td style="text-align:right"> <a href="images/606px-Chart_big.png"><img src="images/Chart_big.png" alt="big.png" width="180" height="178" border="0"/></a></td> </tr> <tr> <td><h2> <a name="Improved_Crop_Feature_in_Draw_and_Impress"></a>Improved Crop Feature in Draw and Impress </h2> <p> In the past; cropping images in OpenOffice.org was not very intuitive.
