OpenOffice.org goes 2.0.3


Here are the list of enhancements by OpenOffice.org:
  • performance improvements: for example, a 23 percent improvement in certain Calc benchmarks
  • further improvements to file format compatibility with Microsoft Office files
  • new email integration features for users wanting to send emails in Microsoft file formats
  • more control over how exported PDF documents will display when opened in a PDF reader
  • support for more languages and improvements in hyphenation and thesaurus
  • support for Intel architecture for Mac OS X plus improved Mac OS X System integration
  • built-in check for updated versions
OpenOffice.org is an open source publishing platform that many use instead of Microsoft's Office suite. This version is now a Universal Binary and of course the aforementioned improvements. OpenOffice.org is available for Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, Solaris, and FreeBSD and is open-source. Get it here for free.
