Lots of improvements coming to #LibreOffice: clearer font substitution, a button in Calc to list sheets, better hyphenation support, and more. See our QA and dev summary for September: https://qa.blog.documentfoundation.org/2026/10/06/qa-dev-report-september-2026/ #foss #opensource #freesoftware

Researchers demonstrated crafted spreadsheets execute attacker-controlled Java code on open in LibreOffice Calc and Apache OpenOffice without macro-trust warning. It matters because it allows silent code execution where Java is enabled, widening malicious document tradecraft. No in-the-wild use reported. #LibreOffice #OpenOffice #ThreatIntel

Is it me, or lately there's something weird happening with #LibreOffice Writer styles?
I cannot change a style anymore if my cursor is not on text that follows this style (weird choice imho). When I am changing a custom style other styles also change accordingly, which didn't use to be the case.
Lots of changes which have me confused :-(
Why did #LibreOffice 26.8 get over 4 million downloads in September? We answered this question, and more, in our talk at the recent LinuxDays event in Prague: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NHqUdrsEYgE #foss #openSource #freesoftware

I am now trying to increase the UI text size because my eyes are not doing well and...having trouble figuring out a way. I'm on windows and my searches are suggesting the only way to do it is to increase the UI scaling in Windows for my whole system.
vi esta historia sobre #Libreoffice en inglés, pero descubrí que el contexto es en 🇲🇽 y que tiene su versión en español, así que aquí el enlace https://es.blog.documentfoundation.org/lunes-de-miembros-de-la-comunidad-adlair-cerecedo-mendez/
For Adlair Cerecedo-Méndez, his work with #LibreOffice began as a response to a specific need: helping the Mexican government obtain an office suite tailored to public institutions: https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/10/05/community-member-monday-adlair-cerecedo-mendez/ #foss #opensource #freesoftware
@bkastl Ich hänge noch etwas Eigenwerbung an.
In einem Blogpost habe ich vor einiger Zeit die wichtigsten Schritte für eine erfolgreiche Erstellung von barrierefreiem PDF aus #LibreOffice aufgeschrieben (DE und EN).
Die LibreOffice-Oberfläche wurde inzwischen etwas geändert; die zentralen Punkte aber bleiben:
• Struktur über Formate
• Korrekte Spracheinstellung
• Dokumentinfo
• AltTexte
• Export-Settings

LibreOffice 26.8.1 megjelenése csúszik a letöltési tükörszerverek hibája miatt, ezért a 26.8.0 verziót ismét elérhetővé tették. Mit jelent ez neked: vársz a javításra, vagy maradsz a 26.8.0-nál? Te frissítenél azonnal, ha a tükrök újra működnek?

I appreciate that LibreOffice exists, and I think I understand the limitations of FOSS, but whenever I use it I think, THE DREAM OF THE 90s IS STILL ALIVE IN LIBREOFFICE.
A new module is available: `programs.libreoffice`. LibreOffice is a comprehensive office productivity suite.

Ich hab schon mal danach gesucht - und finde die Lösung nicht mehr:
Wie kann ich im Writer Formeleditor Größen mit Einheiten angeben - aber die Einheiten solle nicht kursiv sein?
Also der Versuch, meine Schwester zum Umstieg auf #LinuxMint zu bewegen ist gescheitert.
Ich hatte ihr auf ihr Uralt-Notebook Mint drauf gemacht, aber sie hat nun entschieden, bei Win11 zu bleiben🙄
Grund: Sie ist selbständig und arbeitet mit öffentlichen Auftraggebern zusammen. Deren Office-Dateien bereiten ihr in #LibreOffice wohl immer wieder Probleme, und die Bietersoftware "WinGaeb" läuft überhaupt nicht unter Linux😡
"no AI" is now a feature 👍️
so begeistert ich auch von der technologie bin und ihr potential sehe, so sehr bin ich dagegen das zeugs einfach in jeden scheiss einzubauen und den leuten aufzuzwingen
