NeoOffice is a full-featured set of office applications (including word processing, spreadsheet, presentation, drawing, and database programs) for Mac OS X. Based on the OpenOffice.org office suite, NeoOffice has integrated dozens of native Mac features and can import, edit, and exchange files with other popular office programs such as Microsoft Office.
NeoOffice 2.2.4 includes all of the features in OpenOffice.org 2.2.1 and includes many of the features that Microsoft Office 2008 includes. However, since NeoOffice is funded entirely by the time and money donated by our users, NeoOffice may not support some of the more complex Microsoft Office features or documents. For a more detailed comparison of NeoOffice to Microsoft Office 2008, please read our NeoOffice 2.2.4 Feature Comparison.

| Media Browser support (Mac OS X 10.4.x and higher only) |
Many Mac OS X users have found Apple's iLife Media Browser very useful and we have received many requests to include the same feature in NeoOffice. Fortunately, the generous people at Karelia Software have developed the iMedia Browser and we have integrated their iMedia Browser into NeoOffice. Once you open the Media browser by clicking on the new Show Media Browser toolbar button or selecting the new Tools :: Add-ons :: Show Media Browser menu, a floating window will appear from which you can drag your images, movies, sound files, or links directly into a NeoOffice document. |
| Native floating tool windows (Mac OS X 10.4.x and higher only) |
Previously, many NeoOffice floating tool windows such as the Styles and Formatting and the Color windows looked and behaved like document windows. Also, other floating tool windows such as the Bullets and Numbering and the Table windows looked and behaved like Windows floating tool windows. But starting with this release, all floating tool windows in NeoOffice will be native floating tool windows. This means that they will look and behave like floating tool windows in most other Mac OS X applications. They will have the small window titlebar, all of the floating tool windows will float above the document windows, and when NeoOffice is not the active application, all of the floating tool windows will automatically be hidden until NeoOffice becomes the active application again. |
| Magnify and swipe trackpad gestures |
Starting with some of Apple's recent Mac laptops, the trackpad supports magnify and swipe gestures that were first seen in the iPhone. Starting with this release, Mac laptops that have a trackpad that supports these new gestures will be able to zoom the content in their document using the magnify gesture and will be able to move up or down a page using the swiping gesture. |
| Horizontal scrollwheel support |
Previously, NeoOffice only responded to vertical scrollwheel events and only in document windows. Horizontal scrollwheel events were not handled and neither horizontal nor vertical events were handled when a popup menu or window was displayed. But starting with this release, NeoOffice handles both horizontal and vertical scrollwheel events and handles both events in all popup menus and windows. |
| QuickTime video support (Mac OS X 10.4.x and higher only) |
Previous releases of NeoOffice did not support display of video files in documents and only supported playing a video file's soundtrack. But starting with NeoOffice 2.2.3, NeoOffice can display any QuickTime-compatible video files in your documents. Please note that protected sound and video files (such as those purchased through iTunes) are not supported as Mac OS X will only allow protected files to be played in the iTunes and QuickTime Player applications. |
| Menus available when no documents are open |
Previous releases of NeoOffice had only a very minimal set of menu items available if no documents were open. But starting in NeoOffice 2.2.3, menus are now available even when no documents are open. This new feature allows users to access some of the frequently used menus such as the Recent Documents and NeoOffice Help menu items that previously were not accessible unless you opened a document first. |
| Import images from scanners and cameras |
A new menu - Tools :: Add-ons :: Paste Image from Camera or Scanner - has been added. Selecting this new menu allows you to directly import images into NeoOffice from any device (such as digital cameras or scanners) that Apple's Image Capture application supports. If you have any devices attached to your machine that Image Capture recognizes, selecting this new menu will display the Mac OS X Image Capture dialog. Using this dialog, you can import an image from any of the recognized devices into your current document. In addition, the imported image will also be copied to the system clipboard so that you can paste additional copies of the imported image in NeoOffice or any other application. |
| Command-clicking on window titlebar |
In most Mac OS X applications, whenever a previously saved document is opened, a small icon will appear in the window's titlebar. Command-clicking on this icon will display a popup menu that lists the file name and the folders that the file is in. Clicking on any of these items will open the Finder. |
| Mac OS X Leopard grammar checking support (Mac OS X 10.5.x only) |
In Mac OS X 10.5.x, Apple added grammar checking support for a small number of languages. NeoOffice takes advantage of this new Mac OS X feature and so we have added several new menu items in the Tools :: Add-ons menu. These new menu items allow you to use Mac OS X Leopard's grammar checker to check the grammar and recommend corrections for your document's selected text or your entire document. Please note that at this time, Mac OS X's grammar checker only supports English. |
| Handles Most Microsoft Office 2007 Word, Excel, and PowerPoint Files |
NeoOffice includes the ODF Add-in for Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint. The ODF Add-in is an open source project that makes it possible for NeoOffice to open, edit, and save most files in the Office 2007 Word, Excel, and PowerPoint formats. This feature is not available in current Mac versions of Microsoft Office and will not be available until Office 2008 for the Mac is released. |
| Handles Most Excel VBA Macros |
NeoOffice includes the Excel macro support developed by Novell's ooo-build project. The ooo-build project is an open source project that continually develops feature enhancements to OpenOffice.org. |
