| KOffice 1.2.1 released |
Dec. 13, 2002
The KDE Project today announced the immediate release of KOffice 1.2.1. KOffice is an integrated office suite for KDE which utilizes open standards for data formats, component communication and component embedding. KOffice 1.2.1 constitutes the most stable and feature-complete release of KOffice to date, and the KOffice team encourages all users of earlier KOffice releases to upgrade to KOffice 1.2.1.
This release, which is available in 37 languages, includes the following components: a frame-based, full-featured word processor (KWord); a presentation application (KPresenter); a spreadsheet application (KSpread); a vector-drawing application (Kontour, f/k/a KIllustrator); a flowchart application (Kivio); a chart drawing application (KChart); a formula editor (KFormula); a tool for generating business quality reports (Kugar); and filters for importing documents created by, or exporting documents for use with, other office suites or office programs.
KOffice 1.2.1 is a stability release, with the principal improvements over KOffice 1.2, released last September, occurring in the spreadsheet program (KSpread). A list of changes and notes about the release are available at the KOffice web site.
KOffice 1.2.1 complements the release of KDE 3.0.5 late last month. KDE is a powerful and easy-to-use Internet-enabled desktop for Linux and other UNIXes, and together with KOffice constitutes the only Open Source project to provide a complete desktop and productivity environment for Linux/UNIX.
KOffice and all its components (including KDE) are available for free under Open Source licenses from the KDE server and its mirrors and can also be obtained on CD-ROM. Download here.
