Hi :)
I thought that you could have different paragraphs (or smaller elements) set as
a different language in Word or Writer.
Regards form
Tom :)

Hi :)
Hopefully Jean's answer at the top, just under this reply, might have the
answer.
Good luck and regards from

Thanks, I am not on the Documentation list.
Chapter 3, Page 22-23
I missed that, but I was going through the full book of
0200WG3-WriterGuide.odt.
What I want to describe to the IT people and the Language teachers is
how the students can use LibreOffice to type up and spell check their
assignments. They may have English and Spanish/French/German, which
ever language they are studying, in the same document. I wanted to show
them that they can easily do the spell checking in several languages in
the same document. As far as I can tell, you cannot do this in MSO.
I want the local schools to have LibreOffice as an option for their
computers, and have the students be able to download a copy for their
home computers. I would love to have the language teachers tell their
students about LibreOffice, but I need to somehow get the message to the
students about LibreOffice as their option over having to deal with
MSO. How may of these students will be asking for new computers so they
would have LibreOffice for free instead of buying a copy of MSO for that
new computer. It is too late to start a campaign for those students
going to college this summer/fall.
On the page
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/LibreOffice_In_Academia
we need to get more info there about using the package for grades 7-12,
not just college level students. There should be more info, like the
multi-language option for the student taking language classes. New York
requires two years of non-English language classes to be able to graduate.

I think this info, with screenshots, is in Chapter 3, Working with Text, in
the
Writer Guide, but I could be misremembering the chapter. It definitely is
in the
Writer Guide somewhere, because I remember writing it!
Tom, I believe he is asking about the way to mark certain passages as one
language or another, which is not automatic. Once the passages are marked,
the
spelling checker knows which language to use and does so automatically.

Hi :)
Does anyone happen to know an answer for Webmaster at KrackedPress? I
don't
think he is on this list but he might be. I thought that it would just
happen
automatically?

Subject: [libreoffice-marketing] do you know where is the documentation

Does anyone know where in the documentation where the "Language>For
Selection"
option is explained?
I am looking to write up a sheet that explains spell checking a
document
with
English and either Spanish, French, or German, text included. I
cannot
find
this info anywhere.
I want to use that information as a marketing point for the local
school
districts to use LibreOffice in their computer labs for students
working
on
papers for their language classes.
I would rather use the text and images already created, than making
up
such
information myself. I lost much of my writing skills with my last
two
strokes. Since I use to work for one of the local school districts
before
I
had the stroke, I know that having such an ability would be a good
feature
to
market to the IT people and somehow get the information into the hands
of
the
language teachers.
So If anyone has seen where this feature is explained, I need to
know.
