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 :)

I will mention that while I like sending PDFs for things, that won't work for any sort of collaborative project. I was surprised by how many of my coworkers don't know you can comment on PDFs just like you can for Word documents, and are totally unwilling to learn how.

Not that thats what you recommended PDFs for, just something I was surprised by and think is useful to know!

Edit: I re-tested the integration, and it went fine this time--10/10 would recommend.
