Immutable release. Only release title and notes can be modified.

Zendo is a simplified office suite for macOS: spreadsheets (Ledger), PDF editing (Hanko), documents (Sumi) and presentations (Slides). This is a preview, so expect rough edges, and please report problems in Issues.

What's new

  • Sumi, for documents. Write and edit Word documents and Markdown: styles, fonts, lists, tables, pictures, page setup and page numbers, with printing and PDF export.
  • Slides, for presentations. Edit PowerPoint files: text, shapes, pictures, tables, themes and speaker notes, and play them full screen.
  • Print and Export as PDF (⌘P) in Ledger and Hanko. Hanko prints your unsaved edits, and redacted areas print as solid black.
  • More spreadsheet files. Open Numbers, OpenDocument and older Excel (.xls) files, and open and save .tsv.
  • Search in PDFs (⌘F), and redact every match at once.
  • Stronger redaction. "Also remove hidden information" now removes hidden layers too, and Zendo refuses to save a redaction that wouldn't land exactly where you drew it.
  • Updates from inside the app. Zendo checks for new versions and downloads them for you (you can turn this off in the Zendo menu).
  • Clearer import notes. When a file has something Zendo can't keep, each note says what happens to it.
  • Fixes and polish. Row numbers skip hidden rows, formula suggestions appear right after =, the title bar lines up, and menus and popups have a frosted-glass look.

Install

  1. Download the .dmg below. It runs on Macs with Apple silicon (M1 or newer).
  2. Open it and drag Zendo into Applications.
  3. Open Zendo. macOS says it can't verify the app, because previews aren't notarized by Apple yet. Click Done.
  4. Open System Settings → Privacy & Security, scroll down, click Open Anyway next to Zendo, and confirm.

You only do this once per version.

Verify the download (optional)

  • SHA256SUMS.txt has the file's checksum: shasum -a 256 -c SHA256SUMS.txt
  • Proof it was built by this repository: gh attestation verify <file>.dmg --repo Zedyas/zen-forge
