SoftMaker Office 2004 for Linux - The reliable Microsoft-compatible office suite - now for Linux! Tuesday, October 12 2004 Many computer users contemplate switching to Linux as their desktop operating system but ultimately shy away from it because they cannot continue to seamlessly access their Microsoft Word and Microsoft Excel documents. Enter SoftMaker Office 2004 for Linux, a new office suite from Germany that is available for both Linux and Windows and provides the highest degree of Microsoft Office compatibility available yet. SoftMaker Office 2004 contains counterparts to the two most important programs in Microsoft's application suite, Word and Excel: TextMaker is a fully Microsoft Word-compatible word processor, and PlanMaker is the most Excel-compatible spreadsheet on the market now. TextMaker is lightning-fast and reliable, needs little memory, and offers the rich feature set of Microsoft Word. Most importantly, TextMaker reads and writes all Microsoft Word files from 6.0 up to the current Word 2003 seamlessly. PlanMaker offers the feature set and ease-of-use of a modern high-end spreadsheet application and is closely modeled after market-leading Microsoft Excel. Its key features are more than 320 calculation functions, seamless import and export of all Microsoft Excel files, fully Microsoft Excel-compatible charting, and full support for Microsoft Excel's AutoShape drawings. If you can do it in Excel, you can do it in PlanMaker! SoftMaker Office 2004 for Linux and SoftMaker Office 2004 for Windows carry a suggested retail price of US$69.95 or EUR 69.95 each and are available through resellers and directly from SoftMaker. Versions of SoftMaker Office for Pocket PCs and Handheld PCs will be released in the coming weeks. Source: SoftMaker Software GmbH |
