If you have not downloaded a release of NeoOffice since version 1.1, there are dozens of new features in NeoOffice 1.2 Alpha. Some of the most significant include:
- Decreased memory and CPU usage
- Reduced time before the splash screen appears
- Improved performance in some areas, especially drawing
- Uses Java 1.4.2
- Ability to print embedded EPS files
- Numerous printing fixes
- Improved support for international keyboard layouts
- Font-handling improvements
- Enhanced copy and paste support
- Improved compatibility with voice dictation software (iListen, ViaVoice)
- Support for OpenOffice.org accessibility features
- Based on OpenOffice.org 1.1.5 codebase
- Support for reading OpenDocument (aka OpenOffice.org 2.0) file formats
- Spotlight support for OpenDocument formats via NeoLight 1.1
- Requires Mac OS X 10.3 or newer
- Due to our limited resources and the bugginess of Java 1.4.1 on Mac OS X 10.2.x, we are no longer able to support Mac OS X 10.2
