Choosing language settings
You may need to do several things to set the language settings to what you want:
• Install the required dictionaries
• Change some locale and language settings
• Choose spelling options
Install the required dictionaries
OOo3 automatically installs several dictionaries with the program. To add other
dictionaries, be sure you are connected to the Internet, and then use Tools >
Language > More Dictionaries Online. OOo will open your default web browser to
a page containing links to additional dictionaries that you can install. Follow the
prompts to select and install the ones you want.
Change some locale and language settings
You can change some details of the locale and language settings that OOo uses for all
documents or for specific documents.
In the Options dialog box, choose Language Settings > Languages.
On the right-hand side of the Language Settings – Languages page (Figure 58),
change the User interface, Locale setting, Default currency, and Default languages
for documents as required. In the example, English (USA) has been chosen for all the
appropriate settings.
If you want the language (dictionary) setting to apply to the current document only,
instead of being the default for all new documents, select For the current
document only.
If necessary, select the options to enable support for Asian languages (Chinese,
Japanese, Korean) and support for CTL (complex text layout) languages such as
Hindi, Thai, Hebrew, and Arabic. If you choose either of these options, the next time
you open this page, you will see some extra pages under Language Settings, as
shown in Figure 59. These pages (Searching in Japanese, Asian Layout, and Complex
Text Layout) are not discussed here.
