Download Now: LibreOffice 5.3 is Available!

The 5.3 version of the LibreOffice suite is available for download

LibreOffice 5.3 offers a number of exciting new features across all areas: a new cross-platform layout engine that uses HarfBuzz for consistent layout across platforms, with significant benefits across languages and alphabets; a revised help menu, featuring new quick links to user guides and community support forums for an improved user experience; and better import/export filters for new MS Office documents.

Writer now supports table styles to apply formatting to a table that is retained when you make changes; a new Page Deck in the sidebar allows users to quickly customize page settings without going through a separate dialog box; and a new Go to Page Box enables users to jump to another page in the document with just a few keystrokes.

Calc provides a new set of default cell styles, with greater variety and better names than in previous versions; in new installations, "Enable wildcards in formulas" is now the default option, rather than regular expressions, to enhance compatibility with other spreadsheet software; and a new text entry area allows users to narrow down the functions they are searching for, simplifying the search process.

Impress now opens with a template selector to provide users with a quick start; and a new Slide Properties Deck is now available in the sidebar during slideshow mode.

LibreOffice 5.3 has also been improved "under the hood," thanks to the work of hundreds of volunteers. This results in an easier-to-develop, maintain, and debug open source office suite. Although this work is not visible to users, it is extremely important for enterprise deployments.
