Speaking of backups, rather than just backing up files piece by piece, you might be a lot better off if you look into implementing a backup strategy of all of your data. One day a lof of things are going to go missing and restoring from a backup, or better yet re-imaging those folders, is a lot quicker and safer way to not lose anything.

May I repeat a question - does anyone know how to backup the user
dictionaries in OO 3?

If you are speaking bout the preinstalled ones: there is no need for it
since you can simply reinstall them.

And for downloaded ones: you should already backup up the downloaded oxt
file.




Thus the proper solution for a user is to make use of dictionary
extension only.

That answer totally ignores the fact that many of us ADD words to the standard dictionary for what ever reason. (I add unusual place and person names for my genealogy research and technical terms for my work.) Reloading any of the dictionaries wipes out all the "custom words" and I have to add them all over again. The purpose of back-ups is to save this extra work. So the question is still, how do I back up the standard dictionary so I can save my "custom" entries? If it is not possible, then it really should be added as a possibility.
