Installing latest WPS Office 2019 in Manjaro by Pamac. (Successful but minor problems)

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wps-office

Steps:

  1. Enabled AUR support in Pamac.
  2. Searched for WPS office.
  3. Selected the package and built it.

This one works for me.

Also, the flatpak package works but it doesn’t support IBUS.

Installing flatpak version of WPS is also easy. One would only need to enable flatpak support in Pamac.

Issues:

  1. Some minor theming issues are found.

For example, formula is not shown clearly in the spreadsheet.

Also, if dark mode is selected in WPS then typing in the tabs become difficult.

Dark theme is wps’s problem, they did not make it well. So a good way is feedback to its company
