Publisher's description

From Sun Microsystems :

StarOffice 8 software is an easy to use office productivity suite with powerful word processing, spreadsheet, presentation, drawing and database capabilities. Based on open source technology, OpenOffice.org, StarOffice 8 runs on Windows, Linux and Solaris operating systems. The suite is comprised of five key components: StarOffice Writer, Impress, Calc, Base and Draw.

StarOffice software provides excellent compatibility with Microsoft Office. StarOffice 8 software further improves import and export of Word, Excel and PowerPoint documents, even password-protected MS Word and MS Excel files and presentations with complex animations, autoshapes and slide transitions. StarOffice 8 software also provides features that look more familiar to Microsoft Office users. The Format Paintbrush allows simple transfer of styles from one section of a document to another, and the Impress multi-pane user interface simplifies creation of high-impact presentations.

What's new in this version:

Improved Microsoft Office compatibility
Enhanced import and export filters give you seamless word processing, spreadsheet, presentations and support for password-protected Microsoft Word and Excel documents. Your tables, headers, footers, and formatting, even complex Excel formulas and text frames, will all look better.
OpenDocument is the new default file format
Now StarOffice files are saved by default in an open XML-based format, specified by the OASIS OpenDocument 1... see all new features
