# Installing the Built-in Help

The instructions for installing the built-in help depend on the method used for installing LibreOffice on your device. For the purpose of this guide, consider the two following approaches:

1. Installation using the official binaries obtained from the LibreOffice download page.

2. Installation using third-party repositories. This is mainly the case for Linux operating systems that maintain their own packages.

This guide provides instruction for installing the built-in help for packages provided by Ubuntu and Fedora. If your installation method is not covered here, please contact the maintainers of the packages installed on your system.

## Installing from the Official Download page

The instructions in this section are suitable when LibreOffice was installed using the official binaries. Follow the steps below to obtain the installation file for the offline built-in help:

1. Visit the LibreOffice download page.

2. Make sure your current operating system is selected in the Choose your operating system section.

3. Click the link Help for offline use and save the binary file to your device.

Before clicking the link Help for offline use, make sure the desired language is selected. Click need another language if a different language is desired.

### Windows

Open the location where the .msi binary file was downloaded to and execute the installer. Follow the installer instructions.

### MacOS

Open the location where the .dmg binary file was downloaded to and execute the installer. After the installation window appears, drag and drop the LibreOffice icon onto the Applications icon.

### DEB installer

The .deb installer is meant for Ubuntu-based Linux distributions and it is available as a .tar.gz compressed file.

Download the .tar.gz file to your device and extract it. The .deb file will be inside a folder named DEBS.

Open the Terminal application, use the cd command to navigate to the folder where the .deb file is located and run the following command:

$ sudo dpkg -i libobasis7.6-en-us-help_7.6.4.1-1_amd64.deb

The name of the downloaded file contains the version number, therefore the actual file name may differ from the example above.

### RPM installer

The .rpm installer is meant for Red Hat-based Linux distributions and it is available as a .tar.gz compressed file.

Download the .tar.gz file to your device and extract it. The .rpm file will be inside a folder named RPMS.

Open the Terminal application, use the cd command to navigate to the folder where the .rpm file is located and run the following command:

$ sudo rpm -i libobasis7.6-en-US-help-7.6.4.1-1.x86_64.rpm

After installation, restart LibreOffice to be able to use the built-in help.

## Installing from Third-party Repositories

Linux distributions usually provide their own LibreOffice packages, hence the method to install the built-in help will be different for each distribution.

Next are the installation instructions for help packages provided by Ubuntu and Fedora.

### Ubuntu-based Distributions

Open the Terminal application and run the following command (the example below installs the en_US built-in help):

$ sudo apt install libreoffice-help-en-us

### Fedora

Open the Terminal application and run the following command (the example below installs the en_US built-in help):

$ sudo dnf install libreoffice-langpack-en

### Snap packages

The LibreOffice Snap package is provided with the built-in help preinstalled in various languages.
