OpenOffice Writer can be used for a variety of tasks including
business letters, documentation and desktop publishing. Flexible
layout and design options make support multicolumn newsletters and
brochures. Indexing can be used for bibliographical and index entries
and keywords as well as the generation of indexes and reference tables
(such as a table of contents). Groupware features support easy
collaboration with others on the same document, while keeping track of
changes. Export to HTML means you can create your own web site with
hyperlinks, frames, and image maps.
