Editing Linux:Desktop Tips (section)

=== Office (text/spreadsheet/presentation/...) ===
* '''Libreoffice'''
: Install Libreoffice with your package manager.
: Libreoffice consists of Base/Calc/Draw/Impress/Writer, if you are familiar with MSOffice you can compare it to Access/Excel/PictureManager/Powerpoint/Word.
: You can also export every Libreoffice document from within the Application to pdf without any additional tool.
: Documents are saved in the open document format (odf) as default but you can open/save MS-Office documents (eg. doc/docx), too.
: Here's what Libreoffice Calc (comparable to Excel) looks like:

* '''PDF'''
: There's pdf support right out of the box on most Linux distributions (pdf viewer, pdf printer) so there's no need to install Adobe pdf reader or any additional pdf printer.
: If you're looking for an pdf-editor, the application "Master PDF Editor" might be the right choice for you, download (tar.gz/.deb/.rpm) is available at [https://code-industry.net/free-pdf-editor/ Master pdf editor]
: Btw, this software is available for MS-Windows, too. Keep in mind that it's only free for non-commercial usage.
* '''Dia'''
: Install dia-gnome with your package manager
: You can create flow-charts, network diagrams, UML with dia.
* '''Lucidchart'''
: If you're NOT concerned about privacy you could try [https://www.lucidchart.com/ Lucidchart] which is a web based network, etc diagram solution and very well comparable&compatible to Visio.
: There's also an integration possible with Atlassian products like Jira and Confluence!
* '''Screenshot'''
: As the name already tells, this tool is for screenshots, it's already installed in Fedora (Gnome3)
* '''Flameshot'''
: With flameshot you can make screenshots and manipulate/edit them afterwards. This tool is minimalistic but it's very efficient when you're trying to make a lot of screenshots with markers, arrows and so on.
* '''Shutter'''
: With shutter you can make screenshots and manipulate/edit them afterwards, too.
