I am forced to use MS Office 2010 through Wine in order to colaborate with my colleagues who all use MS Office. I would like to know if, and how I can install Plugins for Word in Wine. Specifically I need the Mendeley Plugin (citation software) and the Grammarly Plugin (grammar correction). A general solution that helps me to figure it out myself would be welcome as well.



I saw this post detailing how to install the Jedox Plugin for Excel in Wine. So I think, that in theory, this should be also possible for other Plugins, however, information and tutorials are extremly sparse.



Please do not suggest me LibreOffice as an alternative. I am trying to use the LibreOffice workaround for several years now and I have constantly problems with the compatability. This is especially the case for using Mendeley citations which are not correctly imported and exported.

    I'm not completely sure, but Mendeley Plugin seems to be not working on Wine. You can test it yourself. WineAppdb does not mention Grammarly, so you can try it yourself.

  • @N0rbert. Thanks for your suggestion. How can I test it myself? Is there a general way to install plugins and test if they work?
