LibreOffice 7.2 is now available for free download, and over 60% of the code commits for this brand new version of the best free and open-source office suite focus on interoperability with Microsoft’s proprietary file formats.
LibreOffice 7.2 Community, the latest major release of the free office suite supported by volunteers for office productivity, is available for download at https://www.libreoffice.org/download. Built on the LibreOffice Technology platform for personal productivity on desktop, mobile, and cloud, it offers numerous improvements in interoperability with Microsoft’s proprietary file formats. Additionally, LibreOffice 7.2 Community features various performance enhancements in handling large files, opening certain DOCX and XLSX files, font caching management, and opening presentations and drawings containing large images. Improvements in drawing speed have also been made when using the Skia back-end, which was introduced with LibreOffice 7.1.
LibreOffice 7.2 is now natively available for Apple Silicon, a series of processors designed by Apple based on the ARM architecture. Due to the initial phase of development on this specific platform, binaries are provided but should not be used for critical purposes at this stage. The software will be available from the following page: https://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/stable/7.2.0/mac/aarch64/
