Five More Add-Ons for Google Docs

Inspired by Theresa's post from last week, and Greg's post from March, here are five more add-ons for Google Docs. Just like add-ons do in G-Forms, they allow you to extend the use of Docs and make it work hard for you.


Scroll to the bottom to learn how to get and use add-ons in Google Docs.


Allows you to easily insert accents for different languages from a sidebar in your Doc.



Allows you to type and hand write notations for mathematics and chemistry.



Allows you to quickly and easily create a form text in a Doc.  Teachers can turn a paper test into an online test with just a few clicks.



I know it's 2018, but some people still like faxes.  This add-on allows you to add a fax number and cover page to a Doc.  Click send, and the add-on sends the fax!  You even get an email when it arrives.



Users can embed videos in Google Slideshows, but not Docs.  But with this add-on, now you can!  Add videos to Google Docs that you share with your students, so that students no longer need to leave the doc to watch a helpful video.




How to GET add-ons in Google Docs
In Google Docs, click Add-ons > Get add-ons, then look for the add-on you want.  Once you find it, click the blue button to add.

  




How to USE add-ons in Google Docs
In Google Docs, click Add-ons > the add-on you want to use.



What add-ons do you use??  Let us know what else is out there in the comments.
