    SoftMaker Office description

    A commercial office suite for Linux and FreeBSD systems

    Your office suite is the most important application on your PC for document creation, both on your job and for personal tasks.

    Choose the right office suite, and you will become more productive immediately. Choose SoftMaker Office 2006, and you will get the job done in less time, with better results, and at drastically lower cost than with Microsoft Office.

    If you need to exchange Word or Excel documents with colleagues and business partners, you are no longer dependant on high-priced Microsoft Office: SoftMaker Office 2006 reads and writes all your Word and Excel files seamlessly. What's more, you can open and save OpenDocument and OpenOffice.org files in TextMaker, and both applications in SoftMaker Office support many additional file formats.

    SoftMaker Office 2006 is available for Linux, FreeBSD, Windows, Pocket PCs, and Windows CE – and it offers 100% file compatibility between all supported operating systems!

    Everything speaks for SoftMaker Office 2006:

    - Powerful: Professional office software for beginning and professional users.
    - Compatible: Reads and writes all Microsoft Word and Excel files seamlessly.
    - Fast: Starts and works blazingly fast. Slow is out.
    - Reliable: Does what you want. No nasty surprises.

    Installation:

    To install SoftMaker Office, first switch to the directory below which you want to install it, for example:

    cd ~ to install below your home directory
    cd /opt to install below /opt
    cd /usr/local to install below /usr/local


    Note: You need administrator rights (root) to install SoftMaker Office beyond your home directory.

    Then, unpack SoftMaker Office as follows:

    Extract the files with: tar xzvf ofl06trial.tgz

    Finally, start TextMaker or PlanMaker by typing:

    cd officetrial
    ./textmaker
    ./planmaker
