If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to Windows Reference RSS feed Thanks for visiting!
If you are looking for a free alternative for Microsoft Office Suite and not wanting to go for the most famous alternative openoffice.org for the known reasons of being slow and bloated then its time to turn up to Go-oo. Go-oo is a free cross-platform Office suite created by Novell as a variant of the opensource openoffice.org Office suite from Sun Microsystems.
As I said earlier, Go-oo takes the bloat out of OpenOffice.org and adds features and enhancements which are either not available yet on the mainstream OpenOffice or is only available as an extension. Go-oo is light-weght and easy to use and if you already are a OpenOffice user then there needs to explaining or introduction to Go-oo.
Some of the interesting features on Go-oo include
Built-in SVG support
Rich fields support which provides powerful interoperable fields implementation with nesting, infield editing, multiple fonts etc
Enhance Calc solver
Improved Excel operability and VBA support
UNO automation with Mono development tool
Chinese language rendering with Text Grid rendering
Improved EMF+ rendering
Support for Ms Works files
Import Word Perfect Graphics
Download the Go-oo Windows installer from here
Also, you may choose to install your Language pack (if required).
