Use gdebi to install free office. To do this open a terminal and type the following command.

sudo apt-get install gdebi

Once gdebi is installed,right click on the .deb file and select open with gdebi as shown below. enter image description here

Now you will see the gdebi window,click on install package. enter image description here

  • @adityapatil, installing gdebi shouldn't be necessary. If you choose "Open with Ubuntu Software Center" that will do the job as well. –  Jan 30 '14 at 07:13

    @vasa1 I know that but USC requires working internet connection,gdebi doesn't(if you have all dependencies resolved,which is the case in this question) – Registered User Jan 30 '14 at 07:17

Open terminal and type sudo dpkg -i packagename.deb. If you got error after installing, type sudo apt-get -f install,this will install required files.
