Whether there are many people who are satisfied with the experience of viewing files in Portable Document Format in a web browser is doubtful. This is surely dissatisfying to see a separate desktop application that has to be fired up and embedded in a browser so as to display a file in this format. Google docs viewer is one great help. So if there is an email that you have received in your Gmail account that has an attached file created in this format, all you'd need doing is clicking on the View link below and the document would get displayed in the Viewer in a new tab. It was learnt that Google had been undergoing a process of bringing built-in PDF viewer so as to make it even easier for Chrome users in viewing such files. So take for instance you need checking your bank statement and for safety reasons they are created in this format. When you open a link to check your bank statement, the advanced feature in Chrome would let you view the document very easily. The in-built viewer is serving a lot of help and saving lots of time of users.

This means without Adobe reader you can go ahead and view such files and that too being trouble-free. PDF is a format that people use when they need sending important piece of information to a recipient via the Web and if their documents are in other format then they use PDF converters for various conversions. The best part about this in-built PDF viewer in Chrome is that it has minimalist design but surely has some nifty features to get that attention of yours!
You will also find a predictable scroll to zoom in and zoom out of the document, or fit width and page, but then, there is something better in the shape of search text feature, click on hyperlinks, select text. Along with this you would as well see the awesome interactive forms fields and JavaScript support. There is an in-built protection shield against any form of malware and security attacks that may be present to intimidate the safety of data in such files. Isn't it amazing?

As a working college student, you probably do not have as much time as your non-working classmates. You might not have as much time doing homework, writing papers, and preparing projects. Fortunately, there is one free resource that is available for you that fits in this category: Google Docs. What makes Google Docs so awesome is that it is not just a free alternative to Microsoft Office, but that you can access it on any computer that has Internet access. Even more so, you can easily share files that you have on your Google account with other classmates, which is not possible with Microsoft Office.

As a Word Alternative
With Google Docs, it is possible to collaborate with other classmates on the same document file at the same time. This means that you can multiple people work on the same Document sheet simultaneously. Imagine if you had three people working on the same Document for your History class. If you do not have consistent access to Microsoft Office, then Google Docs is a lifesaver. There is somewhat of a learning curve as there are just a few features in Docs compared to Office, but the necessary features (fonts, paragraph spacing, footnotes, etc.) are available.
Even for smaller things, like creating an itinerary for a class trip, is possible with Google Docs.
As a PowerPoint Alternative
For many college courses, you will need to create a presentation for speeches. Look no further than Google Docs once again. If you are not creative or do not necessarily require a very professional presentation, Google Docs is all that you need for your class projects and speeches. You can insert images, videos, and tables in each slide. Of course, if you require a very professional and/or creative presentation, you should use Office.
As an Excel Alternative
Not very many college students need to create complex functions and arrays in their spreadsheets. Essentially, the basic SUM functions and the like are the most complex things in college students' spreadsheets. Everything that you do with Excel in Office can be performed with Google Docs.
The biggest advantage to using Google Docs is that you can access it anywhere. Plus one if your job has you sitting in front of a computer.
