LibreOffice是OpenOffice.org 办公套件衍生版， 同样免费开源，但相比OpenOffice增加了很多">特色功能。LibreOffice拥有强大的数据导入和导出功能，能直接导入PDF文档、微软Works、LotusWord，支持主要的OpenXML格式。软件本身并不局限于Debian和Ubuntu平台，支持Windows、Mac、PRM package Linux等多个系统平台。
计画目标是成为一个具ODF的支援，独立于任何厂商之外，没 有任何版权要求的办公室套件。它的名字是一个混合词，第一部分自由报在西班牙语和法语中意味着免费，第二部分“办公室”则为英语“办公室”单字。它是可供 人免费 下载，使用和分发的自由软体。
