Writer Content Controls -- what happened in the past half year
FOSDEM 2023

LibreOffice was capable of handling form filling in Writer for a while already. In the meantime, the competition introduced Structured Document Tags, which is their default since 2007, and our fields and form shapes model them poorly. Writer Content Controls are meant to perform a great handling of this third type of form filling. Some recent developments also happened in this are in the past half year: PDF export, combo boxes, titles and aliases. Come and see how this now starts to work in Writer, what still needs doing and how you can help.
