Never tried Libre Office. AFAIUI Open Office development was transferred from Sun to Oricle in 2010 and then the Apache foundation. Libre Office was forked from OO on the Sun transfer and is an open source development as free software and is still developed and it may be that some of the original Sun developers are involved. Functionally they are similar but it may be there are more 3rd party developers for LO. Its suggested LO will also support MS Publisher input later this year. Im using LO as I think it may have more longevity. HTH -- besters Ned
