GNOME Office

5.

The default office suite in Xubuntu is <application>GNOME Office</application>. The applications in this suite are generally lighter and faster than the programs in the <application>OpenOffice.org suite</application>, 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.

6.

The <application>GNOME Office suite</application> includes the following software:

7.

A word processor (<application>Abiword</application>);

8.

A spreadsheet application (<application>Gnumeric</application>);

9.

Two graphics applications (<application>Inkscape</application> for vector graphics and illustrations and <application>The GIMP</application> for photo editing and graphics); and

10.

A database management program (<application>GNOME-DB</application>);

11.

A diagram editor (<application>Dia</application>);

12.

A project management application (<application>Planner</application>).

13.

Only a subset of these applications are installed in Xubuntu by default, but the rest can easily be installed separately using <application>Synaptic</application>. Currently <application>Abiword</application>, <application>Gnumeric</application> and <application>The GIMP</application> are installed by default in Xubuntu. To use the other applications you will need to install them manually (see <link linkend="add-applications">Add Applications</link>).
