LibreOffice 3.5.3 Final Arrives, 60+ Bugs Have Been Fixed

LibreOffice 3.5.3 Final Arrives, 60+ Bugs Have Been Fixed 

The Document Foundation announces LibreOffice 3.5.3, the fourth version of the 3.5 family. LibreOffice 3.5.3 provides additional stability to corporate and individual users of the best free office suite ever. As expected, the new stable release adds no new features, instead fixing more than 60 bugs found in the core of the program. These include problems when importing PDF, PPTX, RTF and DOCX files, as well as a crashing bug.
Highlighted Features:-
  • Calc performance improvements
  • Lightproof improvements
  • Collaborative spreadsheet editing using Telepathy
  • A Microsoft Publisher import filter
  • A signed PDF export
  • A smartphone remote control
  • A new UI for picking templates
  • A Java based GUI for an Android viewer
  • An improved Impress SVG export filter
  • Tooling for more and better tests
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. For Windows users that have LibreOffice prior to version 3.4.5 installed, either uninstall that beforehand, or upgrade to 3.4.5. Otherwise, the upgrade to 3.5.2 may fail. LibreOffice contains all the security fixes from OpenOffice.org in 3.3.0, and perhaps more as a side-effect of the code clean-ups. Microsoft Office 2010 will complain that ODF 1.2 and extended documents written by LibreOffice 3.5 are invalid (but opens them still). This is a shortcoming in MSO2010 only supporting ODF 1.1, please see here for further details.
