Hi all,
I'm using OpenOffice on a PowerBook G4 with Mac OSX 10.3.9.
I can't get the automatic spell checking to work...
When i write a document, i could write anything, OpenOffice won't
complain...
I'd like it to check the spelling of what i'm writting... all the time.
Of course, i have the automatic spell checking function on but it
doesn't semm to work.
What language(s)?
The following is for Linux and Windows, but probably much the same for a Mac.
Languages in OpenOffice
To obtain the relevant dictionaries, go to
File -> Wizards -> Install new dictionaries
and download the ones you want.
To set the default language for your installation, go to
Tools -> Options -> Language Settings / Languages
and set the default for all your documents. If there is a
dictionary for your selection, there will be a tick mark against it.
It is important to remember that language is an attribute of the text
of a document, and can be set differently in different parts of
the same document. This allows foreign language quotes to be separately
checked against the appropriate dictionary.
To set the default for a document that is different from the
default setting for all other documents, when you have opened
the document (or started a new one) go to the Default style
and change it there. F11 (or Format -> Styles and Formatting) brings up
the style list. Right click on Default (or the root style for your document)
go to Modify -> Font tab where you can set the language for this style
and will be carried down to other styles derived from it unless otherwise
changed.
To change the language for a piece of text, highlight the text and go to
Format -> Character -> Font tab (or right click -> Character -> Font)
where you can set the language for just that portion of text.
Thanks, i did all you said but it doesn't seem to make it work...
Sorry.
What language ? you asked
It's for French -> fr_FR
Any help is appreciated.
Seb.
