There are a wide variety of office applications available for Xubuntu that allow you to create documents, spreadsheets, presentations, graphics, and even to design publications.

Some of these applications are included by default in Xubuntu while others can be easily installed using Synaptic.

GNOME Office

The default office suite in Xubuntu is GNOME Office. The applications in this suite are generally lighter and faster than the programs in the OpenOffice.org suite, and have fewer features as a result. But this may be exactly what you want. The suite has excellent compatibility with other major Office suites, such as Microsoft Office.

The GNOME Office suite includes the following software:

  • A word processor (Abiword);

  • A spreadsheet application (Gnumeric);

  • Two graphics applications (Inkscape for vector graphics and illustrations and The GIMP for photo editing and graphics); and

  • A database management program (GNOME-DB);

  • Un editor de diagrame (Dia);

  • O aplicaţie de administrare a proiectelor (Planner).

[Notă]

Only a subset of these applications are installed in Xubuntu by default, but the rest can easily be installed separately using Synaptic. Currently Abiword, Gnumeric and The GIMP are installed by default in Xubuntu. To use the other applications you will need to install them manually (see Cap. 11, Adăugarea, eliminarea și actualizarea aplicațiilor).
