| <h3>How do I perform a spellcheck in a multilingual text?</h3> |
| |
| <P>When OOo checks the spelling of a word (note: word, not paragraph or |
| text) it chooses the spelling dictionary appropriate to the language |
| this single word comes from. This is defined in > Format > Character > |
| Font. This individual language setting normally is set to the default |
| language but can be changed to any other supported language.</p> |
| |
| <p>So, to perform a spellcheck on a multilingual text you need to select each word |
| that isn't part of the default language and assign the appropriate language |
| in > Format > Character > Font.</p> |
| |
| <p>However, if you want to set the whole text to a new language, highlight the |
| whole text and change the setting in > Format > Character > Font. |
