[libreoffice-users] LightProof behind LibreOffice
Hello, Am I correct to say that LightProof is the tool behind the grammar check function of LibreOffice 3.5? What should I do to modify or to add new grammar rules? What should I do to add grammar rules for another kind of language, not English? C. H.

Re: off-list Re: [libreoffice-users] Date changes to a 5 digit number
No computer access, but my guess its that the problem its that the format is set to an integer constant. The correct method is to lookup the format index and create the format if it does not exist. I would explain more, but my phone is slow to use for this. Will have better access in a few days if needed. There is an example in andrewmacro.odt I believe.

D. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I was looking up various packages on my Ubuntu system. Aspell, Hunspell, Myspell, Mythes. When I type Myspell in the Ubuntu Software Center, LibreOffice comes up. I did some looking inside some of the spell checking dictionaries for LO and I see the WordNet license text file listed in a few. So there look like LO may be able to use some of the WordNet files. What types of files it can use, I do not know. I know some of the dictionary/thesaurus extensions are from a time when LO did not exist, so it was OpenOffice.org that used it. Now LO uses the same files and file formats for the dictionary/thesaurus/hyphenationformats. The only thing I really know about WordNet, is that the offline definition dictionary and thesaurus Artha uses WordNet as part of their system. I do not know what the file formats are for WordNet files. I just know what works for creating a spell checking dictionary extension out of a list of words to check. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted

Re: [libreoffice-users] Installing a vanilla copy of LO
Well the answer to that question is on the Linux install page as well. You just have to use the proper file name[s]. http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/installation/linux/ - 4) The above command(s) does the first part of the installation process. To complete the process, you also need to install the desktop integration packages. To do this, change directory to the desktop-integration directory that is within the RPMS directory, by entering the following command at the command line of a terminal window: cd desktop-integration Now run the installation command again: If you have a Suse system, execute this command: su -c 'rpm -Uvh install libreoffice3.3-suse-menus-3.3-1.noarch.rpm' - On 10/28/2012 06:59 PM, Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) Probably just haven't installed the Desktop Integration packages yet?

[libreoffice-users] export to pdf does not carry over the file name of writer
When I export an LibO file (e.g. abcd.odt) to pdf, I would like that the original file name is automatically transferred to become the pdf-file name (e.g .abcd.pdf). At least in version 3.5.6.2 this was possible for a certain while, then this functionality disappeared and came back again. After upgrading to 3.5.7.2 the file name line appears blank when making an pdf-export. Is this a bug? Do I miss a setting somewhere?
