LibreOffice was developed to be a productivity suite that is compatible with other major office suites, and available on a variety of platforms.

It is free software and therefore free to download, use and distribute.

General Features:

• Load and Save ODF documents in flat XML to make external XSLT processing easier
• Make license information accessible via the Help menu
• Made on-line Help available on-line, via the WikiHelp
• Added "Experimental" mode, to allow users to test out as-yet-unfinished features
• Bundled Linux "Libertine G" and Linux "Biolinum G" fonts
• Added the LibreColors to the palette
• Implement import of alpha channel for RGBA .tiffs
• Show all appropiate formats by default on "Save As"
• Use radio buttons widgets to clarify complex menu option intentions
• Add option to enable saving of documents with non-visible changes
• Added Quickstarter for Unix builds (enabled only in distro builds)
• Fix synthetic small caps resizing factor to improve look and interoperability

Download notes:
* Alternatively you can download the latest Windows version or Mac version of this software.

What's New:

• This release is bit-for-bit identical to the 3.5.3 Release Candidate 2, so you don't need to download or reinstall if you have that version already.
• The distribution for Windows is an international build, so you can choose the user interface language that you prefer. Help content is available via an online service, or alternatively as a separate install.
• Starting with this version, our Windows binaries are digitally signed by The Document Foundation.
• For Windows users that have LibreOffice prior to version 3.4.5 installed, either uninstall that beforehand, or upgrade to 3.4.5. Otherwise, the upgrade to 3.5.2 may fail.
• For Windows users that have OpenOffice.org installed, we advise uninstalling that beforehand, because it registers the same file type associations.
• If you run Windows 2000, you may require this update before being able to install LibreOffice.
• If you run Linux, the GCJ Java variant has known issues with LibreOffice, we advise to e.g. use OpenJDK instead.
• LibreOffice contains all the security fixes from OpenOffice.org in 3.3.0, and perhaps more as a side-effect of the code clean-ups.
• Microsoft Office 2010 will complain that ODF 1.2 and extended documents written by LibreOffice 3.5 are invalid (but opens them still). This is a shortcoming in MSO2010 only supporting ODF 1.1, please see here for further details.
