You can use the Apache OpenOffice Extension Manager to add, remove, disable, enable, and export Apache OpenOffice extensions. For example, you can use the Extension Manager to add or remove the following types of extensions:

  • Configuration Data
  • Configuration Libraries
  • Extensions
  • Universal Network Objects (UNO) components
    These components represent compiled software packages. UNO is the interface-based component model for Apache OpenOffice. For more information on this model, go to the UNO Development Kit project web site.

Template:Documentation/Note

You can manage extensions from a dialog box or a command-line.

Using the Extension Manager Dialog Box

You can open the Extension Manager dialog box from the Tools menu in any Apache OpenOffice Program. However, to add packages for all users of a Apache OpenOffice installation, you need to open the Extension Manager dialog box from the command-line.

To Add a Package With the Extension Manager Dialog Box

  1. Become root.
    • In UNIX and Linux, open a terminal, and type su
    • In Windows, open a Command Prompt.
  2. Change to the <Apache OpenOffice installation directory>/Apache OpenOffice2/program directory.
  3. Type unopkg gui
    The Extension Manager dialog box opens.
  4. In the list of extensions, select the extension category that you want to add the extension to.
  5. Click the Add button.
  6. Locate the extension that you want to add, and then click the Open button.

To Remove an Extension With the Extension Manager Dialog Box

  1. Become root.
    • In UNIX and Linux, open a terminal, and type su
    • In Windows, open a Command Prompt.
  2. Change to the <Apache OpenOffice installation directory>/Apache OpenOffice2/program directory.
  3. Type unopkg gui
    The Extension Manager dialog box opens.
  4. In the list of extensions, select the extension that you want to remove.
  5. Click the Remove button.
