ONLYOFFICE Docs is, as the name suggests, an open source office suite and document viewer loved by thousands of people. The highly anticipated ONLYOFFICE Docs 7.5 is finally here and it brings tons of new features, changes and improvements. For the unaware, the app is on par with Microsoft's Office suite and what's better is that it's completely free to use for personal use. Here's everything new in ONLYOFFICE Docs 7.5.
ONLYOFFICE Docs 7.5: What's new?
PDF files have become a standard file format in business and document management. The latest version of ONLYOFFICE Docs 7.5 provides a comprehensive PDF editor. The same supports annotations such as text highlighting, underlining and strikethrough, as well as form filling, comments and drawing. With collaborative editing features coming in future releases, this PDF editor is a versatile tool that you can use to get all your PDF-related tasks done in a snap.
If you use ONLYOFFICE Docs in a professional environment, chances are you often struggle to use hyphens in documents and find yourself going back and forth with the mouse or keyboard. ONLYOFFICE Docs 7.5 provides automatic hyphenation for text documents, which, as the name suggests, will help streamline document creation by eliminating the need to manually hyphenate words at line ends. As users adjust the margins, the software automatically hyphenates words, so you spend less time looking at document formatting and more time focusing on the content of the document.
In addition to a brand new PDF editor, version 7.5 also includes an advanced setting that facilitates smart paragraph selection. When this feature is enabled, the symbol will be added to the selection automatically if you select an entire paragraph without the paragraph symbol. This subtle improvement improves the overall user experience. Additionally, when a user activates and modifies the control of the inline control element while using content controls, the control will automatically be removed but its content will remain. This also applies when you manually click the Remove Content Control option.
