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](https://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=32149). You can test it yourself. WineAppdb does [not mention *Grammarly*](https://www.winehq.org/search?q=Grammarly), so you can try it yourself. – N0rbert Apr 19 '18 at 09:08
  • @N0rbert. Thanks for your suggestion. How can I test it myself? Is there a general way to install plugins and test if they work? – joaoal Apr 20 '18 at 13:35
