Introduction

Ubuntu comes with a comprehensive office suite installed - OpenOffice.org. The OpenOffice.org project is one of the most successful open source projects in the world, and provides a powerful wordprocessor, spreadsheet, presentation designer and database management, and provides support for most languages. The Suite has excellent compatibility with other major Office suites, such as Microsoft Office.

For more information about OpenOffice.org, see the OpenOffice.org website.

However, you may wish to add extra programs to your system. This section outlines a number of other useful office applications.
