a) Install the appropriate dictionaries, thesauri, and hyphenation dictionaries. ">File >Wizards >Install new dictionaries" should bring up the tool for installing dictionaries. * This tool will automatically check to see if it is the most current version. If it is not, then it will ask if you want to update to the current version. * The user interface for version 1.7 is in 27 languages; * It lists roughly 120 dictionaries for spell checking; ** There are some ---probably less than a dozen --- dictionaries for OOo that are not listed in this tool. For the most part, the unlisted dictionaries are very new, very specialized, or very large. * Only install dictionaries etc that you use, and need. OOo performance can be severely degraded if too many dictionaries, etc are installed. [My experience is that performance degradation is noticeable at around 5 dictionaries, and is complete at around 100 dictionaries. The amount of RAM, and your chip speed will affect the performance degradation.] b) Create and use language specific styles; * For each language that is used, create a set of paragraph, character, numbering, and page styles. Use those styles when creating, or editing documents. This way spell checking will be correctly done. Language specific styles also allow for transparent grammar checking from within OOo. * A template that contains the start of language specific styles can be found at http://www.esnips.com/web/OOoRelatedThings. * Uncheck "Spell check in all languages" unless you want your work to contain spelling errors. xan jonathon
