[libreoffice-users] Re: how to select extension dictionary for spellchecking

Hi,

Thanks for your thoughts.

Maybe I should clarify my problem: I regularly have to edit articles 
for publication in a journal that conforms to Oxford Spelling 
(<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxford_spelling>), which differs on some 
points from regular BE spelling, e.g.: only forms in -ize are allowed. 
In order to facilitate spell checking, I installed the OED extension 
from <http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/node/1890>. Though the 
extension is successfully installed (and listed by the Extension 
Manager), there's apparently no way to select this dictionary for 
spellchecking with the LibreOffice (3.4.2) interface, so I have 
resorted to manually overwriting an installed dictionary with the OED 
version.

So, it's really a matter of being able to che
ck the spelling with a 
specific English locale, rather than facing a flawed en_GB dictionary.

Kind regards,

Ron
