Novell LINUX ENTERPRISE DESKTOP 10 SP2 - KDE 08-05-2008 Manual page 83

GroupWise Integration
The Novell edition of OpenOffice.org includes basic integration with GroupWise, al-
lowing documents to be placed in and loaded from the GroupWise Document Manage-
ment System.
3.1.2 Using the Standard Edition of
OpenOffice.org
You can use the standard edition of OpenOffice.org rather than the Novell edition. 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 enhancements made in
the Novell edition.
3.1.3 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 occa-
sionally formatting issues. If you have problems with your documents, consider opening
them in the original application and resaving them in an open format such as RTF for
text documents or CSV for spreadsheets.
TIP
For good information about migrating from other office suites to OpenOf-
fice.org, refer to the OpenOffice.org Migration Guide at
