Don&#8217;t assume you can just start using them for your everyday work - they may corrupt your documents - but do try them out, especially if you do something unusual with OpenOffice.org. If you find something odd, please report it - there are full details of how to do this in <a href="http://contributing.openoffice.org/qa.html">the QA project pages</a>. Helping in the QA activity is a great way for ordinary folk to help the OpenOffice.org project!</p></description> + <pubDate>Tue, 02 Jun 2009 19:33:25 +0000</pubDate> +</item> +<item> <title>OOo Marketeers: OpenOffice.org wins Reader's Choice Award 2009</title> <guid>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4887643299605448632.post-5832539962654387010</guid> <link>http://ooomarketing.blogspot.com/2009/06/openofficeorg-wins-readers-choice-award.html</link> @@ -233,21 +242,6 @@ <p> </p></description> <pubDate>Tue, 19 May 2009 17:36:19 +0000</pubDate> </item> -<item> - <title>Benjamin Horst: Better ODF Support for MS Office</title> - <guid>http://www.solidoffice.com/?p=1150</guid> - <link>http://www.solidoffice.com/archives/1150</link> - <description><p>While Microsoft Office 2007&#8217;s latest service pack purports ODF support, it&#8217;s not complete, nor does it appear designed to provide usable interoperabilty with other ODF-capable applications.</p> -<p>For users of MS Office who need better compatibility, the solution is the Sun <a href="http://www.sun.com/software/star/odf_plugin/">ODF Plugin for Microsoft Office</a>:</p> -<ul> -<li>The Sun ODF Plugin for Microsoft Office gives users of Microsoft Office Word, Excel and PowerPoint the ability to read, edit and save to the ISO-standard Open Document Format (ODF).</li> -<li>The plugin works with Microsoft Office 2007 (Service Pack 1 or higher), Microsoft Office 2003, XP and Microsoft Office 2000.</li> -</ul> -<p>Malte Timmermann explains the situation in his recent post <a href="http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/better_odf_support_in_microsoft"><em>Better ODF support in Microsoft Office via Sun&#8217;s ODF Plugin</em></a>:</p> -<blockquote><p>So many people complain (everywhere, including in OOo mailing lists) about the bad <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenDocument">ODF</a> support in Microsoft Office 2007 SP2, that I thought it might be a good idea to post some information about the ODF Plugin here&#8230;</p> -<p>The <a href="http://www.sun.com/software/star/odf_plugin/">Sun ODF Plugin for Microsoft Office</a>, which is based on <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/">OpenOffice.org</a>, adds support for ODF to Microsoft Office 2000 and newer versions. So you don&#8217;t have to use the very latest Microsoft Office 2007 SP2 version (in case you really need Microsoft Office for some reason) , where ODF support is insufficient anyway.</p></blockquote></description> - <pubDate>Mon, 18 May 2009 11:10:38 +0000</pubDate> -</item> </channel> </rss> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected]
