The KOffice Project

With recent releases KOffice has established its status as the most comprehensive office suite in existence. No other office suite provides as many integrated and diverse components as KOffice. At the same time, KOffice requires only little memory and provides good performance, making it suitable even for old hardware and avoiding the need for expensive upgrades.

Enhanced for the disabled

KWord, KSpread, and KPresenter include some enhancements for near blind users to have the text spoken of widgets under the mouse pointer and/or widgets that have the focus. It also adds a Speak Text option in the context menu of the KWord Document Structure Area, which is useful for speaking a document.
In addition, all KOffice programs were enhanced for mouseless operation with additional shortcuts and keyboard extensions. For instance, you can press Alt+F8 (customizable) and up pops a dialog which you can use to place focus on any widget that can receive focus.
See For Users with Disabilities in the KWord, KSpread, or KPresenter handbooks for additional information

Stunning improvements


The list of stunning improvements for the 1.5 release is simply huge, and all of them were implemented just within a couple of months. KOffice is picking up momentum, quite a lot as well. This tour gives a comprehensive overview of recent highlights. Make yourself comfortable, and enjoy the KOffice Tour.

OASIS OpenDocument Native OASIS OpenDocument Format support Finally, OASIS OpenDocument is the default native format for all major KOffice applications. This is a major step towards interoperability of major office suites on the basis of an open industry standard. OpenOffice.org also uses OpenDocument as native file format, other office suites support it as well. Supporting the OASIS OpenDocument thus contributes to the open and free global standard for office files.
