Hi, LibreOffice 6.1 will support “spell out” numbering styles of OOXML (One, Two...; First, Second..., 1st, 2nd...), as you can see in the following screen cast (only English, French and German examples): https://youtu.be/c0j4Sjie8t4 <https://youtu.be/c0j4Sjie8t4> My questions to the native language speakers: 1. Are these numbers correct in your language? You can check here, too: https://numbertext.github.io/ index.html#testimonials
Lithuanian seems quite OK.
2. Do we need to change the default format etc. according to the normal usage of your country/language variant? For example, in the recent implementation, British English and American English differ with the “and” 101 -> “One hundred and one”: en-AU, en-GB, en-IE, en-NZ 101 -> “One hundred one”: en-US etc.
Not sure which format is the default.
3. Is it enough to support only a single gender in Spanish etc. languages to cover common outline and page number usage in publishing? Book/Part/Chapter/Section/Page/Paragraph One, or simply One (normal usage in English outline numbering) First Book/Part/Chapter/Section/Page/Paragraph (less common in English, but default numbering styles cover this, too) Note: there is a plan to use similar spell out formats in currency and date formats of Writer, typical in contracts and invoices in several languages. These formats are only supported in Calc yet by the NUMBERTEXT Calc extension (or also in Writer macros via the new com.sun.star.linguistic2.NumberText service).
Not sure if these questions only apply to Spanish or not. I would certainly think it's best to support all possible genders.
Also, I noticed that two ways of spelling out are currently not supported for Lithuanian (Year and Formal number, whatever that is).
Also, the default currency is incorrect for Lituania. We switched to Euro a few years ago, but the library default is still LTL. This should definitely be changed, unless it's not that library, but some other...
