You can even create custom macros and commands and add them to the Quick Access Toolbar or Ribbon Toolbar if you like. Being able to customize the Excel toolbar on a Mac is a little different than on a PC, but Microsoft has made great strides in making the applications more consistent, robust, and easier to configure for both platforms. FreeOffice is a full-featured Office suite with word processing, spreadsheet and presentation software. It is seamlessly compatible with Microsoft Office and available for Windows, Mac and Linux. Best of all, it's completely free for both personal and commercial use.
Whether you’re coming from previous versions of your favorite apps and want a quick orientation about where to find familiar basics or you’re entirely new to Office and want an overview of how to get to some of the most important things, each of our Quick Start Guides provides helpful information that you can read, print out and share.
