Using Microsoft Office with Ubuntuda Playonlinux
One of the most frequently asked and searched solutions in Linux is to use Microsoft Office program which is used by windows users. This is now an easy-to-do and solved issue for linux. I have listed the relevant commands below. Of course, the same result is possible with different paths and commands. You can also watch all the works I have done in relation to the subject as a video.
Here are the commands.
First of all, we need an iso file of an office cd. If you already have an office cd, you need to convert it to a digital file with a .iso extension. For this you can use iso converter programs in windows or linux.
After you save your iso file on your computer, you need to install the second stage playonlinux emilator. If you are using ubuntu variants
sudo apt-get install playonlinux
The first time you run Playonlinux, you will see your microsoft office program on the office tab. Clicking here will prompt you for the file path to install the office program. There are cdrom as standard way. Open the command line
cd /
with the root area
cd media
to create a cdrom
sudo mkdir cdrom
If you link the iso file here, the installation process will start easily. To do this, we need to enter the following command at the command line where the iso file is located.
mount -o loop MicrosoftOfficeEnterprise2007_english.iso / media / cdrom
The next stage will be completed after you enter the office installation password in the window you know
**
You can use your Windows programs that you use with Playonlinux on Linux by copying ".Playonlinux" and PlayOnLinux's virtual drives files to the new home directory without reinstalling them.
But remember, if you are using a deb-based distribution, install winbind". If you are using an arch-based distribution, install "samba". Plus have playonlinux wine gecko, mono, winetricks installed.
