OpenOffice.org 2.0.3: Open For Business

OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 is recommended for all. Enhancements include:

• performance improvements: for example, a 23 percent improvement in certain Calc benchmarks
• further improvements to file format compatibility with Microsoft Office files
• new email integration features for users wanting to send emails in Microsoft file formats
• more control over how exported PDF documents will display when opened in a PDF reader
• support for more languages and improvements in hyphenation and thesaurus
• support for Intel architecture for Mac OS X plus improved Mac OS X System integration
• built-in check for updated versions

We also recommend OpenOffice.org 2.0.3 because it includes important security fixes. These have not been exploited but all users of any prior version of OpenOffice.org are urged to download 2.0.3. A standalone patch will be available soon.
