 * 3) A QR Code generator is now available throughout the suite, to create codes that can be read by mobile devices.
 * 4) The redaction feature, introduced in LibreOffice 6.3, helps you to hide classified or sensitive data in a document. In LibreOffice 6.4, an Automatic Redaction feature lets you hide data based on text or regular expression matches.
 * 5) Microsoft Office compatibility has been greatly improved, especially for DOCX, PPTX and Excel 2003 XML files.
