Public bug reported: On a fresh install of Dapper, OOo does not check the spelling of words. We use UK English here and that should be the fallback language for NZers if no nz is available. This is a fairly big deal, especially given how difficult it is to change the language the spellchecker uses. I have to keep highlighting the text and setting the language in the character style to "English (UK)"
This is related to Bug #33294, Bug #44100, Bug #35936 and Bug #44954. The whole language thing causes trouble for derivative languages. Will this be addressed when the "One Dictionary" spec is implemented? ** Affects: openoffice.org (Ubuntu) Importance: Untriaged Status: Unconfirmed -- No spell-checking by default for NZ users https://launchpad.net/bugs/49563 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
