The latest version of NeoOffice is: 3.2.1.

NeoOffice 3.2.1 requires an Intel Macintosh running Mac OS X 10.5.8 or higher. Some Aqua features will appear differently depending on your version of Mac OS X.

You can find the MD5SUMs for current NeoOffice downloads (main binary, language packs, and patches) on the NeoOffice MD5 Checksums page.

Release Notes for beta versions of NeoOffice available for testing can be found here.

If you want to receive announcements whenever a patch or new release of NeoOffice is available, there are several options available:

  • NeoOffice has built-in update checking, which by default checks for updates once a week.
  • Trinity users can sign up for email notifications of any release or patch announcements posted in this topic by clicking on this link.
  • If you prefer feeds to email, you can subscribe to our patch and release announcements RSS feed by clicking on this RSS feed using your web browser or feed aggregator.

Current Patch

3.2.1 Patch-17 is now available.

The new changes included in this patch are listed below:

  • Listboxes in several Base windows are now drawn properly
  • Clicking and holding but not moving the mouse in an image in a Writer document will no longer delete the image
  • Prevented NeoOffice's underlying OpenOffice.org code from triggering occasional hangs during the patch update check process

Note: 3.2.1 Patch-17 requires a full installation of NeoOffice 3.2.1 and will not install on any version of NeoOffice 3.1.2, NeoOffice 3.2, or NeoOffice 3.2.1 Beta. Patch-17 includes all fixes and additions of previous patches.

Older Patches

3.2.1 Patch-6: The new changes included in this patch are listed below:

  • Moved the location of NeoOffice temporary files to the ~/Library/Application Support/NeoOffice folder to protect them from deletion by rogue processes while NeoOffice is running.
  • Fixed a crash when selecting certain options in the pop-up menu that is displayed when text is input in the Spotlight field of the Open File dialogue.
  • Fixed a hang in the underlying OpenOffice.org code that could sometimes occur on certain machines when quitting NeoOffice.

3.2.1 Patch-5: The new changes included in this patch are listed below:

  • Fixed an OpenOffice.org bug where editing certain spreadsheets that use the RATE function and are embedded within an .odt file will cause NeoOffice to crash.
  • NeoOffice now exports high resolution bitmap images for EPS graphics when saving an .odt file to a .doc or .docx file in order to work around an OpenOffice.org bug that caused EPS graphics to be lost when saving to those file formats.

3.2.1 Patch-4: The new changes included in this patch are listed below:

  • Fixed an OpenOffice.org bug where opening certain .docx files causes comments to be merged and repeated.
  • Dragging a table column name from the data source pane to the document pane no longer fails.
  • A failed login no longer shows a blank page in the NeoOffice Mobile window.
  • Pressing the window zoom button no longer causes incorrect resizing on the NeoOffice Mobile login screen.
  • Simplified the process for downloading and installing future patches and new versions of NeoOffice:
    • Starting with NeoOffice 3.2.1 Patch-4, NeoOffice will download the update from within NeoOffice, instead of opening your web browser. If downloading of the update fails or gets interrupted, NeoOffice will automatically try to resume the download from where the download failed.
    • After the download completes, NeoOffice will automatically open the downloaded disk image and ask if you want to install the update now or install it later. If you choose to install the update now, NeoOffice will quit normally and launch the installer on the downloaded disk image. If you choose to install the update later, you will be asked if you want to install the update when you quit NeoOffice.

3.2.1 Patch-3: The new changes included in this patch are listed below:

  • Fixed an OpenOffice.org bug that caused footnote reference numbers to be displayed as normal numbers instead of superscripts when opening certain .odt files
  • Introduced a new NeoOffice Mobile login screen that allows saving login information in the Mac OS X Keychain

  • Fixed a bug where documents using the Optima font displayed using another font
  • Fixed a problem where highlighting in newly opened Writer document fails before rulers are resized

  • Fixed a problem where vertical fonts are drawn using zero glyph width on Mac OS X 10.7 “Lion”.
  • Fixed an issue where Asian fonts are not exported to PDF on Mac OS X 10.7 “Lion”.
  • Improved support for the new Versions feature of Mac OS X 10.7 “Lion” by adding the ability to view all pages of past versions of NeoOffice documents.

NeoOffice 3.2.1 includes all of the fixes previously available in NeoOffice 3.2.1 Beta but requires a new, full download.
