Download AbiWord Our latest stable release is version 3.0.5. It is suitable for a wide variety of word processing tasks. We upgraded to natty a couple weeks ago and Abiword came out with many strange bugs and crashes, and it has some problems with extra mark-up, so we decided to move from it.Īctually the better option IMHO is Google Docs, but they are not really happy sharing their documents in the cloud. Welcome to AbiWord AbiWord is a free word processing program similar to Microsoft Word.


The problem is that they keep many documents and browser windows open at the same time, so the amount of RAM avaliable is very little. OpenOffice was not an option because it's too heavy and slow. The journalists work on Ubuntu machines, and until a couple of weeks ago they did use Abiword to prepare articles that are loaded into a CMS. It should work for common office work on quite old machines.ĮDIT : It's better to give a more complete description of the situation. It has several features, like the ability to connect to multiple servers simultaneously and to switch between them using tabs, VNC servers browsing and bookmarking. Actually I'm looking for a word processor with the folllowing features : Vinagre is a discontinued VNC, SSH, RDP and SPICE client for the GNOME desktop environment, it is superseded by GNOME Connections.
