We checked into this a few years ago and found that the Spelling and Thesaurus portions of FrameMaker are copyrighted to Proximity/Merriam-Webster. The main dictionary and lookup functions were not accessible via the FrameMaker SDK.? Adobe only allowed access to the so-called "personal" and "site" dictionaries. We contacted Proximity/Merriam-Webster about gaining access and got no response. Eventually we gave up and went another way.
The Proximity website is: http://proximity.franklin.com/index.html Good luck. Regards, Robert Stoker Seatech Publications, Inc.

Anyting goes - FDK, FrameScript, Python. Trying to simulate Paragraph Composer (just like the one in InDesign) for FM - hyphenation is a bug - I can't access the language modules, they are encoded. Any suggestions are welcome. If you have anything developed in this direction I'm willing to exchange my data. Michael
