LO/CODE Book project
Professional typography inside LibreOffice
The project enhances readability of text documents by adding highly customizable paragraph-level line breaking and microtypography to the LibreOffice/Collabora Online Writer word processors. It creates a new type of software, with the print quality of proprietary DTP programs and with productivity of word processors. It saves paper and screen area with a compact paragraph layout and readable multi-column pagination. It should result in proposals to enhance the OpenDocument format standard (ISO/IEC 26300) which will be submitted for standardization, encouraging future standards to support enhanced readability, especially for people with reading difficulties.
