Install LibreOffice 6.0 For Ubuntu

Hello everyone, how are you all doing so far in 2019? We are basically in February already, before we know it, we will be half way done with 2018 and 2019 will be just around the corner, smh. I still feel like 2017 went by a little too fast and that can either be a good thing or a bad thing, for me personally, 2017 was a bit rough financially, lol I will save that explanation for another day. Please read on…

Today we will highlight the new LibreOffice 6.0 that was just released a few hours ago by the Document Foundation, it is one of the best Microsoft alternatives available for Windows, MacOS and of course for Linux. If you haven’t tried LibreOffice, I highly recommend you check out and install the new LibreOffice 6.0 — Not only is it free but it has a great supportive and active community that will help you with literally anything along the way. Let’s find out what else makes LibreOffice 6.0 worth your time.

What does LibreOffice 6.0 Offer?

New features to boost your productivity

In LibreOffice 6.0, a new ePUB export filter has been added, so you can save your documents as e-books. The user interface customisation and special character dialogs have been redesigned, while OpenPGP keys can be used to sign documents on all desktop platforms (with experimental encryption support). Also, the Help system has been modernised to be more attractive and easier to use.

Edit documents with ease

In Writer, a Form menu has been added, making it easier to include interactive forms in your documents. New table styles are available, while the Find toolbar now has a drop-down list of search types, to speed up navigation. In addition, mail merge operations can now use tables inside Writer itself as data sources.

Work smarter with spreadsheets

In Calc, new commands have been added for selecting unprotected cells on spreadsheets. Using the File > Export dialog, you can now export a cell range selection (or a group of shapes) in JPG or PNG imported. Finally, the Links dialog has been simplified, while three new ODF 1.2-compliant functions have been implemented, for finding and replacing text using byte positions.

Perfect presentations

Ten great new templates have been added to Impress, to make your presentations shine, while the default aspect ratio is now 16:9, so your new presentations work with widescreen displays straight away.

LibreOffice online – your office suite, anywhere

In LibreOffice Online, the cloud-based version of the suite, user avatars are now supported and displayed in comments. Dialogs have been added and updated, while spell checking is now available across Writer, Calc and Impress. An interactive horizontal ruler has been added to Writer, and Calc now supports basic editing of charts.
