I know just one - The Bat!, there can be others and I think that the first thing to do is to find what programs use it now. People that know some progs to use it should write here for everybody to know just to understand if there is sense to implement the API. On the other hand programs that have to maintain their own spelling checking engines (e.g. Opera browser) may use AOO's one in future if one is implemented. >> Can Common Spelling API (which was in MS Office up to version 2000 as >> far as I know) be implemented in AOO on Windows.

OpenOffice integration into accessible software project
Hello, My name is Rebecca Luttmer, and I am part of a team developing a Java application in the field of Visual Impairment and Accessibility. We are looking for a math editor to integrate into our existing project. The math editor must be completely accessible with a screen reader, and we are interested in the OpenOffice math formula editor. Please tell me who I can talk to about adding some accessibility to the editor, and also getting information about the formula editor API and documentation. I have been to this site: https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/DevGuide/OpenOffice.org_Developers_Guide which provides excellent documentation on every aspect of OpenOffice except the formula editor. Thank you for your time, Rebecca Luttmer

Re: Mentor
Hi Yacine, I'll do what I can to help you, though I'm relatively new to OpenOffice. I am a very experienced developer, just not on this program. Are you planning to use a Microsoft Windows system for building it? If so, you need to read https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Building_Guide_AOO/Step_by_step#Windows_7.2C_Windows_8.1 The build process for OpenOffice is not simple. The code has to run on many different systems so there is a pre-compilation configuration process that runs scripts to prepare for your system. Do not assume that what you do for smaller, simpler programs will work for AOO. Start following the steps, carefully and methodically. If anything goes wrong, ask for help.
