The [open-source Microsoft Office alternative](https://itsfoss.com/best-free-open-source-alternatives-microsoft-office/?ref=news.itsfoss.com), ONLYOFFICE, is a popular choice in the FOSS community. It stands out because it provides plenty of useful features in a compact package.

We had taken a look at the [ONLYOFFICE 7.4](https://itsfoss.com/onlyoffice-7-4-release/) release earlier this year, that introduced many improvements.

Just a few months later, we've got another release that's got a lot of new stuff in it.

Let's see what the **ONLYOFFICE 7.5** release has to offer.

📋

You can find the same improvements for both ONLYOFFICE Docs (online), and ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors. The UI might look a bit different for them.  
  
We tested the ONLYOFFICE Docs 7.5 demo provided by the developers before its release.

## ONLYOFFICE 7.5: What's New?

The key highlights of the release include:

- **PDF Editor**
- **New Features for Presentation**
- **Automatic Hyphenation**
- **Spreadsheet Improvements**
- **Enhancements for Document Editor**

### PDF Editor

A new PDF editor has debuted with this release that lets you **highlight, underline/strike-through text**, **add annotations**, **fill forms**, and even **draw in a PDF**.

The devs have also mentioned that **collaborative editing of PDF files** will be added in the near-future.

### New Features for Presentation

A new '**Morph'** transition was added to the Presentation app that allows for the animating of a smooth movement of elements from one slide to the next.

It can be applied to words, objects, and characters. Furthermore, you can now **set names to objects** to easily find them on other slides.

### Automatic Hyphenation

After many requests from users, ONLYOFFICE now **supports automatic hyphenation of text** in the document editor.

This is set to **result in better authoring of documents**, without having to manually hyphenate words at the end of a line.

### Spreadsheet Improvements

It is now possible to **insert page breaks to divide a worksheet** into separate pages for printing purposes. 

You can also **add images to headers/footers** to customize the top and bottom margins.

Another interesting bit: **a new Trace Precedents/Dependents feature** graphically displays and tracks the relationships between multiple cells and formulas with tracing arrows.

### Enhancements for Document Editor
