We can say that Google Docs is a tool very similar to Microsoft Office, but we work online and in the cloud, with all the advantages that this entails. Some of its lesser-known features may be somewhat obscure for more beginner users, so I decided to show you this series of tricks.

Goole Docs tricks, get the most out of your documents in the cloud.

Insert and search for images with an open license.

When we write an article or some text, it is convenient to add images that illustrate what we are telling. Many times it is difficult to find images that we can use freely in our documents and thus avoid infringing the copyright.

The good news is that Google Docs incorporates a proprietary image search engine that we can use freely, even for commercial purposes . For this, we just have to go to the "Insert> Image" menu and select the "Search" tab. Now we can only enter one or several words related to the type of image we want to search and they will appear on the screen to be selected.

Intelligent writing by voice.

Many times we have to write very long texts, which is a punishment for our eyes. We encourage you to try intelligent writing by voice, which consists of dictating through a microphone the text we want to write.

The speech recognition system itself is able to recognize punctuation marks as "point" or "comma".

Assign write or read permissions when sharing a document.

One of the most useful tricks of Google Docs is to assign individual permissions to the files, so you can allow a user to edit or simply view a file.

To access these options just go to the upper right corner and click on the blue button that says "Share" with a padlock symbol.
