Excel VBA Macro Interoperability
The Novell Edition of OpenOffice.org eases the migration of many macros from Microsoft Excel.
Although not all macros can be successfully migrated, this interoperability offers more than the
standard edition, which does not support migration of macros.
Enhanced Fonts
For the Novell Edition of OpenOffice.org, Novell licensed fonts from AGFA that use the same or
similar names as the fonts available in Microsoft Office. The fonts also look similar to those used by
Microsoft. This allows OpenOffice.org to match fonts when opening documents originally
composed in Microsoft Office, and very closely match pagination and page formatting.
Integration with Novell Evolution
The Novell Edition of OpenOffice.org is tightly integrated with Novell Evolution™, allowing users
to send documents as e-mail and to perform mail merges using the Evolution address book as a
datasource.
Improved File Access
Files are available from any source available to the computer. Network files open and save
seamlessly.
Anti-aliased Presentation Graphics
With hardware acceleration enabled (the default), the Novell Edition of OpenOffice.org provides
higher-quality graphics in Impress slide shows.
Faster Start-up Times
The Novell Edition of OpenOffice.org includes an improved built-in quickstarter that loads
OpenOffice.org components at system startup and thus improves the application’s start-up time.
Subsequent document load times have also been improved.
3.1.3 Using the Standard Edition of OpenOffice.org
The standard edition of OpenOffice.org also works with SLED. If you install the latest version of
OpenOffice.org, all of your Novell Edition files remain compatible. However, the standard edition
does not contain the Novell enhancements.
3.1.4 Compatibility with Other Office Applications
OpenOffice.org can work with documents, spreadsheets, presentations, and databases in many other
formats, including Microsoft Office. They can be seamlessly opened like other files and saved back
to the original format. Because the Microsoft formats are proprietary and the specifications are not
available to other applications, there are occasionally formatting issues. If you have problems with
your documents, consider opening them in the original application and resaving in an open format
such as RTF for text documents or CSV for spreadsheets.
