LibreOffice 25.2.4

Da LibreOffice 24.8 bald das Ende seines Lebenszyklus erreicht, werden alle Nutzer gebeten, ihre kostenlose Office-Suite auf die neueste Version zu aktualisieren.

Berlin, 6. Juni 2025 – Die The Document Foundation (TDF) freut sich, die Veröffentlichung von LibreOffice 25.2.4 bekannt zu geben, der vierten Wartungsversion der LibreOffice 25.2-Familie für Windows (Intel, AMD und ARM), MacOS (Apple Silicon und Intel) und Linux, die unter https://de.libreoffice.org/download/download/ [1] zum Download bereitsteht.

Da LibreOffice 24.8 bald das Ende seiner Lebensdauer erreicht, ist diese Version – die Dutzende von Korrekturen und Verbesserungen enthält, die die Leistung, Zuverlässigkeit und Interoperabilität der Suite weiter verbessern – bereit für Produktionsumgebungen. Wir laden alle Benutzer ein, ihre Installation so schnell wie möglich zu aktualisieren.

LibreOffice 25.2.4 basiert auf der LibreOffice-Technologie, die die Entwicklung von Desktop-, Mobil- und Cloud-Versionen – entweder von TDF oder aus dem Ökosystem – ermöglicht, die die beiden ISO-Standards für Dokumentformate vollständig unterstützen: das offene ODF oder Open Document Format (ODT, ODS und ODP) und das geschlossene und proprietäre Microsoft OOXML (DOCX, XLSX und PPTX).

Produkte, die auf der LibreOffice-Technologie basieren, sind für alle gängigen Desktop-Betriebssysteme (Windows, macOS, Linux und ChromeOS), mobile Plattformen (Android und iOS) und die Cloud verfügbar.

Für Unternehmensanwendungen empfiehlt die TDF eine für Unternehmen optimierte Version von LibreOffice von einem der Unternehmen des Ökosystems, die über spezielle Mehrwertfunktionen und weitere Vorteile wie SLAs und Sicherheitspatch-Backports für drei bis fünf Jahre verfügt.

Latest maintenance release brings improved stability and fixes to the powerful free office suite

Berlin, 30 April 2025 – The Document Foundation is pleased to announce the release of LibreOffice 25.2.3, the third maintenance release of the LibreOffice 25.2 family for Windows (Intel, AMD and ARM), MacOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Linux, which is now available for download at https://www.libreoffice.org/download [1]. This release includes dozens of bug fixes and compatibility enhancements that further improve the suite’s performance, reliability and interoperability.

LibreOffice 25.2.3 is part of the LibreOffice 25.2 series, which provides a balance of cutting-edge features and production-grade stability. For users requiring a more thoroughly tested version for enterprise environments, the project recommends LibreOffice 24.8.

LibreOffice 25.2.3 is based on the LibreOffice Technology Platform, which enables the development of desktop, mobile and cloud versions – including by companies in the ecosystem – that fully support the two available ISO standards for documents: the open ODF or Open Document Format (ODT, ODS and ODP) and the closed and proprietary Microsoft OOXML (DOCX, XLSX and PPTX).

Products based on LibreOffice technology are available for all major desktop operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS), mobile platforms (Android and iOS) and the cloud.

For enterprise-class deployments, TDF recommends the LibreOffice Enterprise family of applications from ecosystem partners with a wide range of dedicated value-added features and other benefits such as SLAs and security patch backports: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-in-business/.

English manuals for LibreOffice 25.2 Write, Impress, Draw and Math are available for download at https://books.libreoffice.org/en/. End users can get first-level technical support from volunteers on the user mailing lists and the Ask LibreOffice website: https://ask.libreoffice.org.

LibreOffice 25.2.2 release notes

Berlin, 27 February 2025 – LibreOffice 25.2.1, the first minor release of the new LibreOffice 25.2 volunteer-supported office suite for Windows (Intel, AMD and ARM), macOS (Apple Silicon and Intel) and Linux is available for download from our website [1]. LibreOffice is the best office suite for users who want to retain control over their individual software and documents, thereby protecting their privacy and digital life from the commercial interference and the lock-in strategies of Big Tech.

LibreOffice is the only office suite designed to meet the actual needs of the user – not just their eyes. It offers a range of interface options to suit different user habits, from traditional to modern, and makes the most of different screen sizes, optimising the space available to put the maximum number of features just a click or two away. It is also the only software for creating documents (that may contain personal or confidential information) that respects the user’s privacy, ensuring that the user can decide if and with whom to share the content they create, thanks to the standard and open format that is not used as a lock-in tool, forcing periodic software updates. All this with a feature set that is comparable to the leading software on the market and far superior to that of any competitor.

What makes LibreOffice unique is the LibreOffice Technology Platform, the only one on the market that allows the consistent development of desktop, mobile and cloud versions – including those provided by companies in the ecosystem – capable of producing identical and fully interoperable documents based on the two available ISO standards: the open ODF or Open Document Format (ODT, ODS and ODP) and the proprietary Microsoft OOXML (DOCX, XLSX and PPTX). The latter hides a huge number of artificial (and unnecessary) lock-in complexities that create problems for users convinced they are using a standard format. Products based on LibreOffice Technology are available for all major desktop operating systems (Windows, macOS, Linux and ChromeOS), mobile platforms (Android and iOS) and the cloud.

For enterprise-class deployments, TDF strongly recommends the LibreOffice Enterprise family of applications from ecosystem partners – for desktop, mobile and cloud – with a wide range of dedicated value-added features and other benefits such as SLAs and backports of security patches for several years: www.libreoffice.org/download/libreoffice-in-business/.

English manuals for LibreOffice 25.2 Writer and Impress can be downloaded from books.libreoffice.org/en/. End users can get first-level technical support from volunteers on the user mailing lists and the Ask LibreOffice website: ask.libreoffice.org.

Availability of LibreOffice 25.2.1

LibreOffice 25.2.1 is available at www.libreoffice.org/download/. Users who don’t need the latest features and prefer a version that has undergone more testing and bug fixing can download LibreOffice 24.8.5, which includes several months of back-ported fixes.

LibreOffice users, free software advocates and community members can support The Document Foundation and the LibreOffice project with a donation at www.libreoffice.org/donate.

The new major release provides a wealth of new features, plus a large number of interoperability improvements

Berlin, 22 August 2024 – LibreOffice 24.8, the new major release of the free, volunteer-supported office suite for Windows (Intel, AMD and ARM), macOS (Apple and Intel) and Linux is available from our download page. This is the second major release to use the new calendar-based numbering scheme (YY.M), and the first to provide an official package for Windows PCs based on ARM processors.

LibreOffice is the only office suite, or if you prefer, the only software for creating documents that may contain personal or confidential information, that respects the privacy of the user – thus ensuring that the user is able to decide if and with whom to share the content they have created. As such, LibreOffice is the best option for the privacy-conscious office suite user, and provides a feature set comparable to the leading product on the market. It also offers a range of interface options to suit different user habits, from traditional to contemporary, and makes the most of different screen sizes by optimising the space available on the desktop to put the maximum number of features just a click or two away.

The biggest advantage over competing products is the LibreOffice Technology engine, the single software platform on which desktop, mobile and cloud versions of LibreOffice – including those provided by ecosystem companies – are based. This allows LibreOffice to offer a better user experience and to produce identical and perfectly interoperable documents based on the two available ISO standards: the Open Document Format (ODT, ODS and ODP), and the proprietary Microsoft OOXML (DOCX, XLSX and PPTX). The latter hides a large amount of artificial complexity, which may create problems for users who are confident that they are using a true open standard.

End users looking for support will be helped by the immediate availability of the LibreOffice 24.8 Getting Started Guide, which is available for download from the Bookshelf. In addition, they will be able to get first-level technical support from volunteers on user mailing lists and the Ask LibreOffice website.
