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 :)
JabRef is much more feature-rich than Zotero, IMO. It's what I use, and I love it, but I had issues getting it to communicate with LibreOffice–it's really designed to work with LaTeX. I ended up having to export to a file each time I updated the bibliography and import that into LibreOffice.
There are also a bunch of reference managers out there–with the exception of Mendeley (curse you, Elsevier, for being the scum of the earth) they can all export and import biblios from each other, so you can try them out without losing your work.
