Rio de Janeiro, September 26, 2024 – The Brazilian LibreOffice community proudly presents its new edition of the Writer Guide 7.6 , based on LibreOffice 7.6 and with the innovations introduced in this version.

The guide meets the need for LibreOffice documentation in Brazilian Portuguese and the Writer Guide will help all LibreOffice users in editing texts, monographs, theses, reports, minutes and much more.

This book introduces the most important features of LibreOffice Writer:

  • Text typing, editing and formatting.
  • Templates and styles; Data tables.
  • Page layouts, with frames, columns and tables.
  • Exporting to PDF, including bookmarks, mail merge, fields and forms.
  • Embedding or linking images, spreadsheets and other objects.
  • Summaries, indexes and bibliographies; master documents.
  • Database integration, including a bibliographic database – and more.

The Brazilian documentation team was composed of Jackson Cavalcanti Jr., Timothy Brennan Jr., Túlio Macedo, Luciana Motta, and Olivier Hallot. The Writer’s Guide translation and editing process was coordinated by Timothy Jr.

“It has been a pleasure to work with the Brazilian team. I have had the privilege of completing the publication of the Writer’s Guide 7.6, a milestone for me personally. We are a great team and I had a lot of help during the process, which was quite valuable. I consider that working on the LibreOffice guides is a very good way to learn how to use office software and develop skills in the area”, said Timothy Brennan Jr,. “The pleasure of working on a translation and editing project of this scope, of learning new skills, and, above all, having contact with other Brazilians from different regions, is an immense and unparalleled joy”, added Timothy.
