The Document Foundation announces LibreOffice 3.4.5
The Internet, January 16, 2012 – The Document Foundation (TDF) announces LibreOffice 3.4.5, a new improved version of the award-winning free office suite for Windows, Mac and Linux, solving a number of bugs and further improving the stability of the program.
LibreOffice 3.4.5 represents the best choice for a free office suite for every user, including conservative corporate users who were still deploying LibreOffice 3.3.4.
In 2011, LibreOffice has won InfoWorld’s BOSSIE Award 2011 as Best of Open Source Software, and the Open World Forum Experiment Award of Most-Popular Software. The awards are a demonstration of the key improvements brought to the legacy code by a small army of close to 400 TDF developers.
LibreOffice 3.4.5 is available for immediate download from the following link: http://www.libreoffice.org/download/. Extensions for LibreOffice are available from the following link: http://extensions.libreoffice.org.
Change logs are available at http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/src/bugfixes-libreoffice-3-4-release-3.4.5.1.log (fixed in 3.4.5.1) and http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/src/bugfixes-libreoffice-3-4-5-release-3.4.5.2.log (fixed in 3.4.5.2).
“fix horizontal scrollbars with KDE oxygen style” thanks!!! I waited it for a long time
Hello,
Congratulation to the TDF!
In the announce, even if English is not my mother tongue, I think one should read “…who were still deploying LibreOffice 3.3.4” instead of “who were still deploying LibreOffice 3.4.4”. Or did I misunderstand the sentence?
You’re right. Amended.
I tried installing this new 3.4.5 version on a couple of Windows Vista systems today, and it appeared to install OK.
However, on staring the programme, it stalled at “Installing Hungarian…” every time.
An uninstall, and re-install brought the same results on both computers.
What do I do to try and solve the problem ?
Try to custom install the software, and choose only the dictionaries you will be using.
HUNGARIAN CRASH ??? INSTALL JAVA 6 SIX is a must.. this is a reproducible error, if you only have JAVA 7 , the install seems ok but on first launch of writer crash at Hungarian,,, if you do custom install with no hungarian, then it crashes further into the launch process,,.. leave other JAVAS on your machine, just install JAVA 6 as well
and the problem will be solved..
PS if you know how to put this into the officall bug reporting system please do so , as i dont know how..
remember when office shipped with JAVA included, , well now it doesnt , and it doesnt check sucessfully for version 6 which it needs to launch !.
I just installed Libre Calc and tried to run it. Got the message: ” The application cannot be started. [context=”shared”] caught unexpected exception!”
What did I do wrong? This is in Ubuntu that I installed yesterday.
Thank you
John

Help me please. I have already installed Openoffice.org program before into my laptop; Is it okay to download Libreoffice.org into the same laptop without running in conflict with the already installed Openoffice.org program? Or, should I need to uninstall the Openoffice.org first, prior to installing the Libreoffice? TY.
Are there any plans to create update channels for LibreOffice, such as those that exist for Firefox and Opera, so that those who want to directly update their installation with either stable releases or beta ones or even the nightly builds can do so without having to manually download packages and install them?
As a Linux user who likes to stay somewhere between cutting edge and bleeding edge — and I believe there are many like me out there — I think that would be immensely useful. At the very least, could you include an “update” script packaged with the downloadable zip files that could be used to automatically find the existing installation and upgrade with the freshly downloaded packages — OpenOffice.org had that ability, and I don’t understand why it was removed in LibreOffice.
P.S.: If there’s a more appropriate portal or channel where I can make this feature request, please do let me know, and I’ll do it there as well.
I am struggling hard to install the kannada (kn)dict. I had downloaded kannada.oxt -from erstwhile OOofficewebsite
unable to install in the libreOffice. please guide me how to do? Request for step by step procedure to install
i am not programmer nor developer. Even screenshot will do. i am using Winxp(Sp3). Just now I have uninstalled old version of libreoffice and now installing new version 3.4.5 win x86_install multi exe.
well, this is annoying. it says that I have to upgrade to 3.4.5 before upgrading to 3.6.1 — but I don’t see how to upgrade to 3.4.5!
Holaaa, sera que me podes decir cuales son esos errores que fueron corregidos, para una investigación que estoy haciendo 🙂
