KOffice is an integrated office suite based on the KDE libraries. KOffice currently includes KWord, KSpread, KPresenter, KChart, Karbon14, Krita, Kexi, KFormula, Kugar, and Kivio. There are no special mail and news clients included in KOffice, because there are KMail and KNode available for KDE anyway. All KOffice components work together, and you can embed every KOffice component into any other KOffice component. This is realized using the KParts object model.

Recent releases


Release Notes: This is the last maintenance release of the 1.6 series, containing mainly bugfixes.


Release Notes: Bugfixes and minor new features in Krita and Kexi.


Release Notes: Since this is a maintenance release, only two of the components, Krita and Kexi, have new features. Krita, the image editing application of KOffice, has gotten a new Color Level filter. The new features in Kexi, the desktop database application competing with MS Access, include parameter queries and a new combo box that takes advantage of the database relationships.


Release Notes: This release is mostly a feature release of Krita and Kexi, but also contains major enhancements to the OpenDocument and MathML support in KFormula and new scripting functionality. This version also contains a vastly improved version of KPlato, the project planning application.


Release Notes: This is the second bugfix release with fixes throughout all KOffice components. The translations have been updated.

I don't feel anything funny about it. Though their package is not that good as openoffice

very buggy
I used to use kword 1.2.1, but it was very buggy: crashed constantly, printed debugging output to the console, produced bad PDF output. AbiWord seems much better than kword. Kspread 1.2.1 crashed within the first five minutes I used it.

Amusing
That project description almost reads like a satire article making fun of the KDE application naming scheme. :)
