I've been using Libreoffice, and OpenOffice before it, on ARM for many years. You can get it from debian or ubuntu repositories. I presume the sources are there too (?). It generally works very well and is as stable as the i386 versions. Unfortunately -base broke some years back and has been removed from the repositories.

No comment on its usability with touchscreens. I have only used external keyboards (USB, BT or slide keyboard on my Nokia N900), so have never dealt with using an on-screen keyboard.

Hi :) It sounds as though LibreOffice-Arm is not ready yet.
Apparently it is not yet compiled and alpha-tested in Ubuntu.  Even
tho Debian and Ubuntu are in the same family Debian programs do not
always work well in Ubuntu.

As with most programs it is written for keyboard and mouse.  You
might be able to get an on-screen keyboard.  I am sure i have used
one in Ubuntu before.  Do you know how to search for software and
check that it is free?  I vaguely remember it being in Accessibility
features although that seems a slightly mad place to look for an
on-screen keyboard.

Regards from Tom :)

hi,everyone: I want to run libreoffice transplants to the arm,
how can I do? thinks。

Perhaps the simplest way is to install Debian - there are already
packages for ARM in repository. There is official port to armel
(http://www.debian.org/ports/arm/) and unofficial (it just means
that it has not yet met quality criteria - you can expect some bugs
and rough edges) port to armhf
(http://wiki.debian.org/ArmHardFloatPort).

Although if you want to run LO on touchscreen device, it may be
quite unusable because of user interface which was created with
mouse and keyboard in mind. -- Best regards Mirosław Zalewski
