“OpenOffice.org is an excellent all-around productivity
suite as it is, but you can add a few useful features using
extensions to make it better suited for use in a business
environment. Here are a handful of extensions worth considering if
you are using OpenOffice.org as a business tool.“Right from the start, Google Docs has been a useful complement
to OpenOffice.org. Since this web-based office suite supports the
OpenDocument format, you can send documents back and forth between
OpenOffice.org and Google Docs. While this works fine when you have
to upload or download documents every now and then, transferring
dozens of documents between OpenOffice.org and Google Docs can
quickly become a nuisance. The OpenOffice.org2GoogleDocs (ooo2gd)
extension solves the problem by allowing you to easily upload
OpenOffice.org documents to Google Docs as well as open existing
Docs files in Writer. The upload feature supports not only ODT
documents, but also SXW, DOC, and RTF. Moreover, ooo2gd can send
spreadsheets in ODS, XLS, and CVS formats as well as PPT and PPS
presentations. The download part of the ooo2gd extension is still
in the experimental stage, and for now, you can only open Google
Docs documents in Writer as plain text files.”
