New page

A full office suite, not unlike Microsoft Office, but based on [http://sun.com/ Sun's] [http://sun.com/staroffice StarOffice] suite, which was released as an open-source licensed product (in the StarOffice version 5).

Requires java, so the install takes a long time and you have to do all the downloading and unzipping etc that the [[Java]] page mentions.

-Be sure to [[cvsup]] to the latest ports and [[portupgrade]] any old ports if you're going to be installing the 2.0-devel version of OOo; it'll save you a lot of time.

 Setting up your dictionary for other languages in openoffice can be a struggle.  I was trying to set it up for Australia only to find that once I installed the UK dictionary for openoffice the spell checker didn't want to work.  Here is how I got it to work:
-Made Openoffice with my local.<br>
+Made Openoffice with my localization info:
-<pre>
+ # make -DWITH_CUPS LOCALIZED_LANG=en-GB
 # make -DWITH_CUPS LOCALIZED_LANG=en-GB
-</pre>
 Now the tricky part, when you start up openoffice you have to go and set the language for the Default style.
-Hit 'F11'
+ Hit 'F11'
-Right click on Default -> Modify<br>
+Now you're right to go.
-Go to the font section<br>
-change the language to something your can read and has a tick next to it which suggests that the dictionary is installed for it.
-−
-Now your right to go.
