LibreOffice 24.8.3 Office Suite Now Available for Download

LibreOffice 24.8


The Document Foundation (TDF) announced the release of LibreOffice 24.8.3, the third minor release in the LibreOffice 24.8 family. This free and open-source office suite is available for Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems. You can download the new version from the official website at www.libreoffice.org/download.

This release mainly focuses on improving stability and robustness. Compared to the previous version, LibreOffice 24.8.2, it features over 80 bug and regression fixes. One notable addition is the support for the Visio template format VSTX.

LibreOffice champions user privacy, giving users complete control over their data and how it's shared. This sets it apart in the market, providing a comparable feature set to leading products while prioritizing user privacy. The software also boasts various interface options catering to diverse user preferences and screen sizes.

LibreOffice is built on the powerful LibreOffice Technology engine. This single platform underpins all versions of LibreOffice, ensuring seamless compatibility and interoperability across desktop, mobile, and cloud environments. LibreOffice supports both the Open Document Format (ODF) and Microsoft's OOXML format.

Users can access support resources like the LibreOffice 24.8 Getting Started, Writer, and Impress guides from /books.libreoffice.org. For technical assistance, volunteers are available on mailing lists and the Ask LibreOffice website: ask.libreoffice.org.

TDF strongly recommends LibreOffice Enterprise for large-scale deployments. This suite, offered by ecosystem partners, comes with extended support, security patches, and Service Level Agreements. These partnerships benefit the entire LibreOffice community as the code developed for enterprise customers is shared back, enhancing the LibreOffice Technology platform.

Businesses looking to transition from proprietary office suites can utilize TDF's migration protocol. This includes installing the LTS (long-term support) enterprise-optimized version of LibreOffice and receiving consulting and training from certified professionals.

With its mature codebase, extensive features, open standards support, compatibility, and LTS options, LibreOffice is an ideal solution for organizations aiming to regain control of their data and escape vendor lock-in.
