Revision as of 08:48, 8 July 2007

This page really needs instructions on how to install these dictionaries, or a link to such a page.


What is the point of these dictionaries?

Language is a propery of characters. Also, there's a global document language in the options dialog.

I've installed OOo 2.0.3 under Windows and then used File->Wizard->Install New Dictionaries

Installation went OK to the finish, but speclchecker can't see any language. Quite a bad experience as for people like me who like open source and free software.

Best regards, user Vak.

Hi. I'm dying to know two things:

  1. What dictionaries are being used in OOo (e.g., aspell)?
  2. If I see a spelling error in the dictionary, how can I report it?

I'd add both these to this article if I knew. Thanks.Mwtoews 04:35, 26 November 2006 (CET)

DDicOOo wizard errors

08 July 2007 There is an error in either the Polish or Swedish language sections of the DicOOo wizard macro. When prompted, remove these sections leaving the below and the rest will work fine. If you need Polish or Swedish, you will have to diagnose and fix the error (sorry I don't have time today - probably a missing " or an unexpected reaction to a special character in the languages).
