How to use it well

ONLYOFFICE Desktop Editors can cover routine office work from local files. Test the document formats you exchange most often and keep editable originals, using fixed-layout exports when reviewers only need to read the finished result.

Keep working files in a clearly organized local folder and test a representative document from each format you exchange. Use PDF export for fixed-layout review copies. Connect a collaboration service only when needed and check its separate account, storage and hosting terms.
