To: Lostsoul joyseyh...@yahoo.com Date: Friday, October 19, 2012, 8:33 AM The dictionaries come from many sources, groups, and individuals. I put out three versions of English: American English, British English, and Canadian English. This is the link to the American English dictionary that has over 773,000 words, plus thesaurus. http://libreoffice-na.us/English-3.5-installs/add-on-dictionaries-large-list/kpp-american-english-dictionary-plus-tech-words-773407-words.oxt This is the list of all of the English dictionary extensions I know of. http://libreoffice-na.us/English-3.5-installs/dictionary.html#english The LO package includes an English dictionary that includes several different version of English. Why these versions we combined into one extension, I do not know. The big reason for the different versions [there are over 20 for Spanish], is the fact that we have localized versions per country or region. America spells Color one way, but British and Canada spells it Colour. There are many words that are spelled differently in the USA vs. in England or Canada. These differences are why we have localized dictionaries. American English 2012 dictionary? The only one I know of is shown in the Extension Manager as American English spelling-hyphenation-thesaurus-773407 words 2012.06.24 That is the one I linked above. The reason for the 2012 date is due to the fact that June 24th of 2012 was the last modification of that dictionary extension file. I have not seen an official American English 2012 dictionary out there, as of yet. But I may update my English dictionaries again before the year is out. Where did I get my information - i.e. word list - from? Well there are many sources of spelling word lists out there in the electronic ether and I found them over the years and collected the words into one set of lists for American, British, and Canadian versions of English. Back in the 1980's I did a spell checking dictionary project at a college and there were about 177,000 words in that list back then, Now my lists are all over 600,000 words each.

Did you download the 3.5.6 or 3.6.something LO from the official site and install as advised? Is there any chance of giving us a screen-shot? Also, just out of curiosity, have you used Win7 on any machine other than your own? Has anyone else used your machine that might have some familiarity with Win7 when it's properly installed? Did you install Win7 or was it already on the machine when you bought it? Btw Abiword can save files in MS formats but you have to do File - Save As ... You can't set it to default to MS formats. I tried nagging them about it but gave up. The native format it uses is the OpenDocument Format, same as LO, same as almost every other word-processing program except MS and even they purport to support it as a non-native format. So, people using MS Office 'should' be able to open your documents created in AbiWord. I did mention all this when i made some suggestions about what other free word-processors were out there although not in as much detail.

Larry gave a link to help with that. Here is another link that will one day be merged with the one Larry gave http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/UserProfile Factory defaults are possibly a bit less tweaked than whatever you had installed so it may look a little different and may remove some weirdnesses. It's a good thing to try whenever you find weird things going on. It usually beats a reinstall assuming you have now installed a proper version of LO.

[libreoffice-users] Re: Auto and Manual Spell do not work _ _
Ok why have i never had a word problem with vista but since i have had win 7 64 bit for 2 months now on a lap top; Asus to be exact i can t get any word programs spell / grammer check to work for me yet ? ? Seems like spell check works with one word then a second word but can t find four or five mis spelled words in a doc that i close then i open some days later and sees no mis spelled words ? ? I wonder if spell grammer checkers that come with word programs for win 7 can t do both that is underline a mis spelled word as you type and correct or underline then the user manually corrects it and then i assume it should correct mis spelled words after i reopen a saved doc; i always though it could do both but on win 7 can t figure out how to get that to happen.

To: Lostsoul joyseyh...@yahoo.com Date: Saturday, October 13, 2012, 5:12 AM Hi :) Would you like someone to access your machine remotely and fix LO for you to make it all better? I have installed LO on several Win7 machines but you are right, i do avoid using Win7. I've never had any trouble with LO on it when i do use it. Installs have been very smooth and it's all gone really well. People use those machine and even use LO with no troubles whatsoever. It's not clear why you can't perform simple tasks that everyone else seems to manage. The best way would be to start the remote desktop thing and save the little file it gives you. Then attach that file to a private email, not to the whole list! In the email itself give the code that they set in the little pop-up box. Copypaste works. You can probably work out why we try to avoid doing this sort of thing! We prefer it if users can start to learn how to think for themselves so they can help their friends / colleagues directly without needing to take up a lot of other people's time on technical support. Unfortunately that does mean the person has to think a little bit sometimes (which can be dangerous). Since you are having so much trouble with that it looks like remote assistance might be about your only hope unless you take your machine to a shop. It sounds like you have tried to install Win7 yourself and not yet finished all the dreary nonsense to finish the process. A shop might be able to finish the process or perhaps revert to Vista.

To: Lostsoul [hidden email], [hidden email] [hidden email] Date: Friday, October 12, 2012, 11:34 AM Hi :) I think what i would be tempted to do at this stage, since you have put so much timeeffort in is to resize the Win7 partition to around 30-50Gb and then get an Ubuntu Cd and install Ubuntu on however much space you have left (assuming you have over 15Gb to spare). Ubuntu comes with tons of programs already installed so it very usable right from the start. http://www.ubuntu.com/ The download button is halfway down the left side, just under the title Rock Solid. Windows is a Pita to install. I think probably a lot of people on this list share your pain as there are probably a lot us here that have had to try it too. With hindsight i think it's usually best to stick with whatever is already on the machine but just shrink the partition as small as reasonably possible and then use the rest of the space for the new install of whatever. Win7 is great once it's installed and got all the programs but it sounds like yours has something wrong with it, or with the LO install or something. Like i say it is a total pain to install. Not that once you have created the Ubuntu Cd you can boot-up straight from the Cd without even installing it so you can test-drive the lookfeel of Ubuntu. We call it a Live Cd session. You can make a Usb one which is a lot faster but people often still call it LiveCd even if it's Usb.

Various freeware sites are the best guarantee that you get your computer infected with anything *they* want.

If you go to a freeware site and find such small sized LO install files, the something is wrong with their installs. Sites line the North American Community DVD Project - http://libreoffice-na.us - are OK since they are dedicated to LibreOffice and its distribution of the original files from the LO site. Actually I run that site [NA-DVD one], The current size for 3.5.6 is about 211 MB in size. I do not know what the size of 3.6.2, but it should be close to it, not anyways near 28 or 120 MB in size. I would stick with the official LO site, unless you find a regional site that is dedicated to LO, like the NA-DVD site. If the freeware sites are offering such a small download package for LO, then I would not trust them. The only reason the NA-DVD site has LO files in their site, is the fact that their web site versions of the NA-DVD are the same as the DVD media for the NA-DVD, with all of the needed install files and all of the extras on top of those files.

Can t stop laughing at the way everyone hates with a passion MS ie versions but everything gets over laid over ie; i ve used ie forever and never had a problem; i hear it all its to big or small or messy or not sucure or chashs alot or to easy to hack etc. If ie is so awful bad how come no one invents a browser that has nothing; takes nothing and borrows nothing from ie ? No plug in s or add on s be 100 % new. I ve tryed avant; and firefox and modzilla and opera and chrome and short of using a stop watch; standing on my head or using zoom i don t see a difference and they all run worse on windows 7 64 bit. Ubuntu sounds way to tricky to install and get it to run right so won t use it. Now heres something weird; i have used a 28 and 108 mb versions of libre but just came across a 208 mb 3.6 version along with some 10 mb help add on; thinking i ll un install the libre crap i have now and try 3.6 with help maybe they finally fixed the windows 7 issues after doing nothing for 3 yrs of screwing us users - later . . --- On Fri, 10/12/12, krackedpress [via Document Foundation Mail Archive] ml-node+s969070n4012894...@n3.nabble.com wrote: From: krackedpress [via Document Foundation Mail Archive] ml-node+s969070n4012894...@n3.nabble.com Subject: Re: Auto and Manual Spell do not work . . To: Lostsoul joyseyh...@yahoo.com Date: Friday, October 12, 2012, 9:12 AM Ubuntu is one of the more popular versions of Linux operating systems. Linux is more stable than Windows, where if a package crashes it is just the package and not the whole system like Windows often does. You cannot [or easily] run Windows package on Linux, but you should find everything you will need for free so you will not have to buy anything. Also, the nasties that infect Windows are a rare breed for Linux. Linux OSs are usually free. Linux software are almost always free. I went to Ubuntu's version of Linux several years ago. I like it better than Windows, for the most part. I have been using Ubuntu for my main desktop system since Feb. 2010 when I bought it. I have my Dell laptop, since it has room for it, dual booting so I can use either Vista or Ubuntu on it. I rarely use Windows anymore, except for one USB hardware and to use Epson's software to print a label directly on my printable CDs/DVDs. Sometimes it take a bit for the newest printers to get a specific driver, but most HP printers are currently covered and you can find drivers that work for the other brands halfway easily if the company down not offer a link to a Linux driver. If you are a normal Windows user, you may find it hard to switch to a version of Linux. It is just like switching from Windows to Mac or Mac to Windows, hard to get use to and you will need to get all the package you might need for your work on the computer. I switched because there were a lot of package that I needed and could not afford to buy them using a Windows OS. I found all of those package types free on Linux. Actually now a few have been ported over to Windows, but not when I needed them a few years ago. So I would think you would not want to switch over to a Linux OS. I do not remember any Linux users having the Spell Checking problems you are having on Windows, though.

Just save the file 2. close the file 3. double-click to open it 4. click on the spell-check button If step 3 opens the file in anything other than LibreOffice then 1. close the file again 2. right-click on the file's icon, a menu should appear 3. in that right-click menu choose Open with ... 4. Hopefully LibreOffice Writer should be in there. If not then at the bottom there is usually something like more programs. LibreOffice's various programs/modules (Writer, Calc etc) should be in there. If that doesn't work or starts looking far too complicated then 1. Open LibreOffice but do File - Close to get back to the LO splash-screen that offers a choice of which module to open. 2. Instead of opening a module just drag the file's icon into the LO window Probably the 1st set of 4 steps will do the trick. The rest is just in case it's being awkward. I have forgotten which OS you are using but they are all pretty much the same except Mac. However, there are slight differences so please let us know which OS you are using to get better detail. Windows? Xp, Win7? Ubuntu, Mageia, Fedora openSUSE or some other flavour of GnuLinux? OS X or other Mac? It seems unlikely you are using a BSD (unless you count Mac) but if you are there might still be someone on this list using it although i think they tend to go off to the devs list fairly quickly or use their own down-stream forums/lists.

Ubuntu comes with tons of programs already installed so it very usable right from the start. http://www.ubuntu.com/ The download button is halfway down the left side, just under the title Rock Solid. Windows is a Pita to install. I think probably a lot of people on this list share your pain as there are probably a lot us here that have had to try it too. With hindsight i think it's usually best to stick with whatever is already on the machine but just shrink the partition as small as reasonably possible and then use the rest of the space for the new install of whatever. Win7 is great once it's installed and got all the programs but it sounds like yours has something wrong with it, or with the LO install or something. Like i say it is a total pain to install. Not that once you have created the Ubuntu Cd you can boot-up straight from the Cd without even installing it so you can test-drive the lookfeel of Ubuntu. We call it a Live Cd session. You can make a Usb one which is a lot faster but people often still call it LiveCd even if it's Usb.

If the person installed a version of LO that is not the proper file size, then there will be trouble.

Windows is a Pita to install. I think probably a lot of people on this list share your pain as there are probably a lot us here that have had to try it too. With hindsight i think it's usually best to stick with whatever is already on the machine but just shrink the partition as small as reasonably possible and then use the rest of the space for the new install of whatever. Win7 is great once it's installed and got all the programs but it sounds like yours has something wrong with it, or with the LO install or something. Like i say it is a total pain to install. Not that once you have created the Ubuntu Cd you can boot-up straight from the Cd without even installing it so you can test-drive the lookfeel of Ubuntu. We call it a Live Cd session. You can make a Usb one which is a lot faster but people often still call it LiveCd even if it's Usb.

To: Lostsoul joyseyh...@yahoo.com Date: Thursday, October 11, 2012, 11:35 AM This has been a recurring issue that happens to people since 3.4.x came out. Some people get this issue, while others do not. Some people fix it by removing the user profile [in various places depending on the system], and then allowing LO to recreate it. Others fixed the problem with a reinstall of the package after they removed the user profile. Still others fixed it by downloading/installing a dictionary extension file [.oxt] for the language you want to use. I try to maintain an up-to-date list of all the available dictionaries that I know of. http://libreoffice-na.us/English-3.5-installs/dictionary.html with over 180 dictionaries, including over 20 localized Spanish dictionaries. The official LO extension center also has dictionary files. My largest American English dictionary/thesaurus has over 773,000 words in its spell checking word list. I also have British and Canadian English dictionaries with over 600,000 words in it. I would rename the user profile [Ubuntu Linux has it in a hidden .libreoffice folder, but I do not remember where the different Windows ones are located]. Then I would reinstall the LO version you are using. Then to give you some extra help, I would download an localized dictionaries you might want to use and install them with the Extension Manager. That will cover all your bases and may give you some more localized dictionary options that the normal LO install does not cover. The reasons why the Spell-checking issue happens to some but not others, is a mystery to many of us. But these steps usually correct the problem.

If the issue cannot be easy replicated, it becomes very hard to find what code or combination of code is causing the problem on only certain systems. It could be something as weird as some problem in the Win7 registry that is corrupted that could be causing the problem. I have to run a checking system every so ofter to fix the registry errors that happen on my various XP and Vista systems I deal with from time to time [mine and others].

Just save the file 2. close the file 3. double-click to open it 4. click on the spell-check button If step 3 opens the file in anything other than LibreOffice then 1. close the file again 2. right-click on the file's icon, a menu should appear 3. in that right-click menu choose Open with ... 4. Hopefully LibreOffice Writer should be in there. If not then at the bottom there is usually something like more programs. LibreOffice's various programs/modules (Writer, Calc etc) should be in there. If that doesn't work or starts looking far too complicated then 1. Open LibreOffice but do File - Close to get back to the LO splash-screen that offers a choice of which module to open. 2. Instead of opening a module just drag the file's icon into the LO window Probably the 1st set of 4 steps will do the trick. The rest is just in case it's being awkward. I have forgotten which OS you are using but they are all pretty much the same except Mac. However, there are slight differences so please let us know which OS you are using to get better detail. Windows? Xp, Win7? Ubuntu, Mageia, Fedora openSUSE or some other flavour of GnuLinux? OS X or other Mac? It seems unlikely you are using a BSD (unless you count Mac) but if you are there might still be someone on this list using it although i think they tend to go off to the devs list fairly quickly or use their own down-stream forums/lists.
