Hi all,
It seems one has to go through great loops in order to get
hindi/Devanagri working on Libreoffice
First up this is on Debian (testing) on a custom kernel 64-bit version.
Linux deb-home 2.6.37+ #1 SMP Tue Jan 11 23:49:18 IST 2011 x86_64 GNU/Linux
b. Libreoffice is the latest 3.3 RC3
LibreOffice 3.3.0
OOO330m19 (Build:5)
tag libreoffice-3.3.0.3
c. I went to IRC and got the following instructions :-
Install the hindi dictionary from openoffice.org extension
http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/dict-hi
and specifically downloaded this :-
http://ftp.services.openoffice.org/pub/OpenOffice.org/contrib/dictionaries/hi_IN.zip
Then as per instructions installed it using Tools > Extension Manager .
It shows up as just hi-IN.zip
1. Then also went to Tools > Options.
In Languages they are set as the following :-
a. User Interface :- English
b. Locale Setting :- English, did it to Hindi as well but no change.
c. Default currency :- changed to INR
d. Default Languages for documents :-
Western :- Default English (India)
Asian :- None (greyed out)
CTL - Default - Hindi
e. In Enhanced Language support
CTL is checked and not Asian Languages
2. In Writing Aids I could not find Hindi in the available Language
Modules there.
3. In Libreoffice writer basic fonts put up Ubuntu font everywhere.
Still in a fix how to get hindi writing hindi going.
