As per the release not of KOffice 2.2,
The KOffice team is very happy to announce version 2.2.0, half a year after the release of KOffice 2.1. This release brings an unprecedented number of new features and bugfixes as can be seen in the full list of changes. There are two reasons for this very high development rate: People have started to notice KOffice again and the developer community is growing and the fact that Nokia is sponsoring development of KOffice for their office viewer.
As per the note, the major enhancements are as follows,
1. New framework for effects and shapes. 11 new effects are added
2. Import filters for OOXML MS Formats which are used in MS Office 2007 or later
3. Improved compatibility with non-X11 platforms like Windows and OSX
