Hi there, welcome to another tech tip, today we will look into downloading Apache OpenOffice in Ubuntu 13.04, It shall work on other Ubuntu based Distros like Mint and Xubuntu.

• At first you need to download Apache OpenOffice from this offical link
• After that you need to Uninstall LibreOffice:
• Use the command: sudo apt-get purge libreoffice-* and confirm with y
• Copy the downloaded archive to your desktop and open it.
• Extract the folder DEBS to your desktop
• In terminal write cd Desktop
• Then write cd DEBS, the command should look like username@machinename:~/Desktop/DEBS$ []
• Write the command sudo dpkg -i *.deb to install all the debs in the folder (Batch install)
• Use the command cd desktop-integration
• Write the commandsudo dpkg -i *.deb to install the menus on your system, or simply access the folder and double click on it install them.

Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy your time with Apache OpenOffice
