OpenOffice.org Suite

The default office application is OpenOffice.org 2. This is the second major release of the popular office suite that includes Writer, Calc, Draw, Impress, and Math. This suite is the open source equivalent of the Microsoft Office suite and each application corresponds to a similar product in that line. Calc is very similar to Excel, Writer is the same for Word, Impress is PowerPoint, and Base functions similarly to Access. OpenOffice.org can handle all but Microsoft Access files without problems.

While all of these applications are installed by default, Kubuntu has chosen to rename the titles that are listed in the KMenu to better reflect how these applications are used and in some cases have removed them from the KMenu entirely. For more details about the OpenOffice.org suite, visit OpenOffice.org homepage.
