Re: [libreoffice-users] Writer, Google Docs and random bookmarks

Hi Virgil,

I don't have an answer for your interesting question, and also I don't 
have a device to test the problem onto.

But... I try to solve the problem following a different approach.

I think you are in the right position to promote LibreOffice usage 
directly on Chromebooks with your students.

For that goal, I suggest you the following video, which clearly 
describes the few steps to do to have LO installed on Chromebooks.

If your students will use it to create their writings, then they will be 
able to upload them on college's online portal.

No costs, no fees, LO community increases: great satisfaction.
