Hey you all, i started using LibreOffice since i switched to Linux, but i didn’t used it often yet so I’m still getting the hang of it. Since I’m gonna start College next week, I’m interested in what extensions you can recommend. Some weeks ago i read that it’s recommend to install some fonts, so when you exchange documents with other students that are using Microsoft Office, there will be less of formatting issues.
So can you recommend me some useful Extensions, e.g. fonts for the situation above, that can help me in everyday life (as a student)?
I’m looking forward to your suggestions :)
While I don’t know too much on fonts, I would highly, highly recommend looking into the reference manager Zotero and its LibreOffice and browser extensions for reference management. It’s helped me significantly organizing research for papers and cutting down the time I spend doing menial tasks like reference checking, I can just click a button to add a source to my library and then another with the LibreOffice extension to plop it in as a reference. It has options for every major referencing style and you can create your own as well, though I haven’t cared enough to try lol
I use JabRef which is another open sourced bibliography tool. I use it regularly and truly have no clue what I’d do without it at this point!
Thanks for these two recommendations. I will look into these and see which suits me better :)
