Hi Matthias, I have attempted to use the following link: https://home.apache.org/~mseidel/AOO-builds/AOO-415-Arabic/Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.5_Win_x86_install_ar.exe to download the Arabic build of OpenOffice, but the error I get is “Windows cannot access the specified device, path or file. You may not have the appropriate permissions to access the item”. I want to run the test build ASAP, so any suggestions on this error. Can you instruct me on how to run the test, I would appreciate it.

I managed to work around the problem by defaulting the NSIS-Installer to en-US: https://home.apache.org/~mseidel/AOO-builds/AOO-415-Arabic/Apache_OpenOffice_4.1.5_Win_x86_install_ar.exe So, the first part (extracting the files) is in English, the installation and the program itself should be in Arabic (as far Andrea mentioned) Regards, Matthias > > Regards, > Matthias > >>> I'm available to help for Portuguese to. >> Thanks Pedro, but for Portuguese this step is unnecessary since it was >> already released; basically what we are trying at this stage is simply >> to build Arabic 4.1.5 with the strings we already had.
