Download
The KOffice project, being part of the KDE community, is dedicated to producing Free Software, therefor you can download and install KOffice in most cases free of charge. While the KOffice project only provides source code, it is easily installable through the package manager of many linux distributions, FreeBSD. There is also preliminary support on Mac OS X and Windows.
Two versions of KOffice are currently available:
- 1.6.3 – stable full-featured version, aimed at at end users, for use with KDE3 and Qt3; download the source code from KDE HTTP or FTP mirrors. This version is no longer supported by the KOffice developers.
- 2.3.1 – stable version aimed at developers, testers and early adopters, not at end users, for use with KDE4 and Qt4; download the source code from KDE HTTP or FTP mirrors. Some applications in this version, like Krita, are ready for end users and have surpassed their 1.6 counterpart.
Note: 2.x series do not include Kivio yet, if you want to use Kivio you will need to stick with 1.6.x series.
