Hacking OpenOffice.org
Tips, Tricks, and Untold Secrets
by Bruce Byfield

August 2006, 304 pp.
$24.95
ISBN 1-59327-072-0

OpenOffice.org is a free, cross-platform office suite that is the leading alternative to Microsoft Office. Hacking OpenOffice.org shows you how to get the most out of this powerful program suite, without spending time on obvious basics that you can easily deduce on your own. Rather than covering every aspect of OpenOffice.org, author Bruce Byfield focuses on the essentials and the tasks that are most likely to puzzle or frustrate users, whether they are new to the program or have some experience with it. The book also provides tips for how to use the program more efficiently and migrate successfully from MS Office.


Bruce Byfield is a prolific author who wrote the original text of the Desktop Debian manual (originally the Progeny Debian User's Guide). He has been a contributing editor at Maximum Linux magazine, and his articles have appeared on the Linux Today and TECHWR-L sites. Byfield also contributes regularly to Newsforge and pens the "OpenOffice.org Off-the-Wall" column appearing bi-monthly on the Linux Journal website.
