LibreOffice 4.0.2 Final (2013-04-04)
This is the third release from the 4.0 branch of LibreOffice. It contains many exciting new features, and is suitable for early corporate adopters and private users.
The following notes apply:
- This release is bit-for-bit identical to the 4.0.2 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.
- Our Windows binaries are digitally signed by The Document Foundation.
- For Windows users that have OpenOffice.org installed, we advise
uninstalling that beforehand, because it registers the same file type
associations.
- If you run Linux, the GCJ Java variant has known issues with LibreOffice, we advise to e.g. use OpenJDK instead.
- LibreOffice 4.x drops a few long-deprecated features, including support for legacy binary StarOffice files, export to legacy Word and Excel (version 6.0/95), and legacy ODMA document management.
- Some menu entries have changed or added. If you miss something, that may be due to the use of customised menu settings from your previous LibreOffice installation.
- This version still contains a few annoying bugs, as listed here. Specifically, the German Duden Korrektor extension needs a manual fix.
