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? There is no obvious way to mark text up as being in any particular language. Why does MS Word beat OpenOffice on this? Chameleon 10:00, 25 October 2006 (CEST)

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)
