ਕੀ LibreOffice ਕਿਸੇ ਵੀ ਵਰਤੋਂਕਾਰ ਲਈ ਪੂਰੀ ਤਰ੍ਹਾਂ ਫਰੀ ਹੈ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

LibreOffice is free for use by everybody. You may take this copy of LibreOffice and install it on as many computers as you like, and use it for any purpose you like (including commercial, government, public administration and educational use). For further details see the license text packaged with this LibreOffice download.

ਹਰੇਕ ਵਰਤੋਂਕਾਰ ਲਈ LibreOffice ਮੁਫ਼ਤ ਕਿਓ ਹੈ?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

You can use this copy of LibreOffice free of charge because individual contributors and corporate sponsors have designed, developed, tested, translated, documented, supported, marketed, and helped in many other ways to make LibreOffice what it is today - the world's leading Open Source productivity software for home and office.

If you appreciate their efforts, and would like to ensure that LibreOffice continues to be available far into the future, please consider contributing to the project - see https://www.documentfoundation.org/contribution/ for details. Everyone can make a contribution of some kind.

ਇੰਸਟਾਲੇਸ਼ਨ ਲਈ ਨੋਟਿਸ
----------------------------------------------------------------------

LibreOffice requires a recent version of Java Runtime Environment (JRE) for full functionality. JRE is not part of the LibreOffice installation package, it should be installed separately.

ਸਿਸਟਮ ਲੋੜਾਂ
----------------------------------------------------------------------

As a general rule, you are recommended to install LibreOffice via the installation methods recommended by your particular Linux distribution (such as the Ubuntu Software Center, in the case of Ubuntu Linux). This is because it is usually the simplest way to obtain an installation that is optimally integrated into your system. Indeed, LibreOffice may well be already installed by default when you originally install your Linux operating system.

This "stand-alone" LibreOffice installer is provided for users in need of previews, having special needs, and for out-of-the-ordinary cases.

* Linux Kernel version 3.10 or higher;
* glibc2 version 2.17 or higher;
* FreeType version 2.8.0 or higher;
* GTK version 3.20 or higher;
* Gnome 3.18 or higher, with the at-spi2 1.32 package (required for support for assistive technology [AT] tools), or another compatible GUI (such as KDE, among others).

There is a wide variety of Linux distributions, and there may be different installation options (KDE vs Gnome, etc.) available from the same Linux vendor. Some distributions ship with their own “native” version of LibreOffice, which may have different features from this community-supplied version of LibreOffice. In many cases, you can install the community-supplied LibreOffice alongside a native version. However, you may prefer to remove the “native” version before installing this community-supplied version. For details on how to do that, please consult the user help resources provided by your particular Linux vendor.

It is a recommended best practice to back-up your system and data before you remove or install software.

ਯਕੀਨੀ ਬਣਾਓ ਕਿ ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਕੋਲ ਆਪਣੇ ਸਿਸਟਮ ਤੇ ਆਰਜੀ ਡਾਇਰੈਕਟਰੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਲੋੜੀਂਦੀ ਖਾਲੀ ਮੈਮੋਰੀ ਹੈ, ਜਿਸ ਉੱਤੇ ਪੜ੍ਹਨ, ਲਿਖਣ ਅਤੇ ਵਰਤਣ ਦੇ ਅਧਿਕਾਰ ਮਨਜੂਰ ਹਨ। ਇੰਸਟਾਲੇਸ਼ਨ ਸ਼ੁਰੂ ਹੋਣ ਤੋਂ ਪਹਿਲਾਂ ਹੋਰ ਸਾਰੇ ਪ੍ਰੋਗਰਾਮ ਬੰਦ ਕਰੋ।

LibreOffice ਦੀ ਡੇਬੀਅਨ/ਊਬੁੰਤੂ-ਅਧਾਰਿਤ ਲੀਨਕਸ ਸਿਸਟਮਾਂ ਉੱਪਰ ਇੰਸਟਾਲੇਸ਼ਨ
----------------------------------------------------------------------

For instructions on how to install a language pack (after having installed the US English version of LibreOffice), please read the section below entitled Installing a Language Pack.

When you unpack the downloaded archive, you will see that the contents have been decompressed into a sub-directory. Open a file manager window, and change directory to the one starting with "LibreOffice_", followed by the version number and some platform information.

ਇਸ ਡਾਇਰੈਕਟਰੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਸਬ-ਡਾਇਰੈਕਟਰੀ ਹੋ ਸਕਦੀ ਹੈ ਜਿਸਦਾ ਨਾਂ ਹੈ "DEBS"। ਡਾਇਰੈਕਟਰੀ ਨੂੰ "DEBS" ਡਾਇਰੈਕਟਰੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਤਬਦੀਲ ਕਰੋ।

Right-click within the directory and choose "Open in Terminal". A terminal window will open. From the command line of the terminal window, enter the following command (you will be prompted to enter your root user's password before the command will execute):

The following commands will install LibreOffice and the desktop integration packages (you may just copy and paste them into the terminal screen rather than trying to type them):

sudo dpkg -i *.deb

The installation process is now completed, and you should have icons for all the LibreOffice applications in your desktop's Applications/Office menu.

Installation of LibreOffice on Fedora, openSUSE, Mandriva and other Linux systems using RPM packages
----------------------------------------------------------------------

For instructions on how to install a language pack (after having installed the US English version of LibreOffice), please read the section below entitled Installing a Language Pack.

When you unpack the downloaded archive, you will see that the contents have been decompressed into a sub-directory. Open a file manager window, and change directory to the one starting with "LibreOffice_", followed by the version number and some platform information.

This directory contains a subdirectory called "RPMS". Change directory to the "RPMS" directory.

Right-click within the directory and choose "Open in Terminal". A terminal window will open. From the command line of the terminal window, enter the following command (you will be prompted to enter your root user's password before the command will execute):

For Fedora-based systems: sudo dnf install *.rpm

ਮੈਂਡਰਿਵਾ-ਅਧਾਰਿਤ ਸਿਸਟਮਾਂ ਲਈ: sudo urpmi *.rpm

For other RPM-based systems (openSUSE, etc.): rpm -Uvh *.rpm

The installation process is now completed, and you should have icons for all the LibreOffice applications in your desktop's Applications/Office menu.

Alternatively, you can use the 'install' script, located in the toplevel directory of this archive to perform an installation as a user. The script will set up LibreOffice to have its own profile for this installation, separated from your normal LibreOffice profile. Note that this will not install the system integration parts such as desktop menu items and desktop MIME type registrations.

Notes Concerning Desktop Integration for Linux Distributions Not Covered in the Above Installation Instructions
----------------------------------------------------------------------

It should be easily possible to install LibreOffice on other Linux distributions not specifically covered in these installation instructions. The main aspect for which differences might be encountered is desktop integration.

The RPMS (or DEBS, respectively) directory also contains a package named libreoffice7.6-freedesktop-menus-7.6.0.1-1.noarch.rpm (or libreoffice7.6-debian-menus_7.6.0.1-1_all.deb, respectively, or similar). This is a package for all Linux distributions that support the Freedesktop.org specifications/recommendations (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedesktop.org), and is provided for installation on other Linux distributions not covered in the aforementioned instructions.

ਭਾਸ਼ਾ ਪੈਕ ਇੰਸਟਾਲ ਕਰਨਾ
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Download the language pack for your desired language and platform. They are available from the same location as the main installation archive. From the Nautilus file manager, extract the downloaded archive into a directory (your desktop, for instance). Ensure that you have exited all LibreOffice applications (including the QuickStarter, if it is started).

ਡਾਇਰੈਕਟਰੀ ਨੂੰ ਉਸ ਡਾਇਰੈਕਟਰੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਤਬਦੀਲ ਕਰੋ ਜਿਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਤੁਸੀਂ ਆਪਣਾ ਭਾਸ਼ਾ ਪੈਕ ਖੋਲ੍ਹਿਆ ਹੈ।

Now change directory to the directory that was created during the extraction process. For instance, for the French language pack for a 32-bit Debian/Ubuntu-based system, the directory is named LibreOffice_, plus some version information, plus Linux_x86_langpack-deb_fr.

Now change directory to the directory that contains the packages to install. On Debian/Ubuntu-based systems, the directory will be DEBS. On Fedora, openSUSE or Mandriva systems, the directory will be RPMS.

From the Nautilus file manager, right-click in the directory and choose the command "Open in terminal". In the terminal window you just opened, execute the command to install the language pack (with all of the commands below, you may be prompted to enter your root user's password):

ਡੇਬੀਅਨ/ਊਬੁੰਤੂ-ਅਧਾਰਿਤ ਸਿਸਟਮਾਂ ਲਈ: sudo dpkg -i *.deb

For Fedora-based systems: su -c 'dnf install *.rpm'

ਮੈਂਡਰਿਵਾ-ਅਧਾਰਿਤ ਸਿਸਟਮਾਂ ਲਈ: sudo urpmi *.rpm

For other RPM-using systems (openSUSE, etc.): rpm -Uvh *.rpm

Now start one of the LibreOffice applications - Writer, for instance. Go to the Tools menu and choose Options. In the Options dialog box, click on "Language Settings" and then click on "Languages". Dropdown the "User interface" list and select the language you just installed. If you want, do the same thing for the "Locale setting", the "Default currency", and the "Default languages for documents".

After adjusting those settings, click on OK. The dialog box will close, and you will see an information message telling you that your changes will only be activated after you exit LibreOffice and start it again (remember to also exit the QuickStarter if it is started).

ਅਗਲੀ ਵਾਰ LibreOffice ਚਾਲੂ ਕਰਨ ਤੇ, ਇਹ ਤੁਹਾਡੀ ਇੰਸਟਾਲ ਕੀਤੀ ਭਾਸ਼ਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਚਾਲੂ ਹੋਵੇਗਾ।

ਪਰੋਗਰਾਮ ਸ਼ੁਰੂ ਕਰਨ ਦੌਰਾਨ ਗਲਤੀ
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Difficulties starting LibreOffice (e.g. applications hang) as well as problems with the screen display are often caused by the graphics card driver. If these problems occur, please update your graphics card driver or try using the graphics driver delivered with your operating system.

ਸ਼ਾਰਟ-ਕੱਟ ਸਵਿੱਚਾਂ
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Only shortcut keys (key combinations) not used by the operating system can be used in LibreOffice. If a key combination in LibreOffice does not work as described in the LibreOffice Help, check if that shortcut is already used by the operating system. To rectify such conflicts, you can change the keys assigned by your operating system. Alternatively, you can change almost any key assignment in LibreOffice. For more information on this topic, refer to the LibreOffice Help or the Help documentation of your operating system.

ਫਾਇਲ ਲਾਕਿੰਗ
----------------------------------------------------------------------

File locking is enabled by default in LibreOffice. On a network that uses the Network File System protocol (NFS), the locking daemon for NFS clients must be active. To disable file locking, edit the soffice script and change the line "export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING" to "# export SAL_ENABLE_FILE_LOCKING". If you disable file locking, the write access of a document is not restricted to the user who first opens the document.

ਗਰਾਫਿਕਸ ਕਾਰਗੁਜ਼ਾਰੀ
----------------------------------------------------------------------

By default, LibreOffice favours nice-looking graphics over speed. If you experience slow graphics, switching off 'Tools - Options - LibreOffice - View - Use Anti-Aliasing' may help.
