    <para>The <application>GOffice</application> package contains a library of
    <application>GLib</application>/<application>GTK</application> document
    centric objects and utilities. This is useful for performing common
    operations for document centric applications that are conceptually simple,
    but complex to implement fully. Some of the operations provided by the
    <application>GOffice</application> library include support for plugins,
    load/save routines for application documents and undo/redo functions.</para>
