The number of letters in a misspelled word seem to me to need to be increased.Īlso if a letter repeats in a word and in different places then that letter may need to be removed from consideration in a separate rule for dictionary suggestions.Īlso maybe also give suggestions on words that are tested against the dictionary from last letter first, a type of reverse search.

Any help would be deeply appreciated.I'm a creative writer and poet, love my OO, but I kinda NEED an extended multidialect dictionary like this and I kinda NEED a thesaurus, which so far I haven't found any at all that "has not been updated in a long time", etc. Now, not being particularly tech-savvy I have no idea what this gobbledigook actually means, but my first reaction is, "Of course it doesn't EXIST, I'm trying to CREATE it, that's the whole POINT!!!!!!!!" Very frustrated, especially as it seems to be the only English language dictionary or thesaurus without, "This extension has not been updated for a long time, may not work with current versions of OpenOffice" plastered all over its Extensions webpage.

I have tried to install this extension repeatedly using several methods: opening directly with the extension manager, saving it on hard drive and thumb drives, saving it to the desktop.and each time I get the same error message: "Add extension(s): C:\Users\Owner\AppData\Roaming\OpenOffice\4\user\uno_packages\cache\uno_packages\svvnm4.tmp_\dict-en.oxt does not exist." and it refuses to install the extension. I'm really grateful for this open-source software and all the effort people put into it, it's amazing, but please please, on behalf of all the ordinary people out there just like me who have been driving themselves crazy trying to install this extension and hitting the same problem SINCE 2014 at least!, couldn't one of you clever software types fix this? It was never easier to use MySQL databases in Base.

But obviously lots and lots of people must be simply giving up the task because of this "does not exist" issue. I had no choice but to find a way to do this, because my AOO had suddenly "lost" the spellcheck dictionary so that every single word was failing the spellcheck. Refer to the comment on page 2 below from "Anonymous" on for step-by step instructions, but now also add the bit about changing the filename. Graphics: 1024 x 768 or higher resolution with at least 256 colors.I had the same problem with the "C:\long file path\blah blah\ does not exist" error message, basically had to create the last couple of folders in the path, paste the downloaded file into place and also change the name of the file to just "dict-en" to get the Extension Manager to work.After installation and deletion of temporary installation files, Apache OpenOffice will use approximately 440 Mbytes disk space. Storage: At least 650 Mbytes available disk space for a default install via download.Memory: Minimum 256 Mbytes RAM (512 MB RAM recommended).Hardware demands are quite modest and even older machines should be able to run OpenOffice: But in those cases a 32-bit JVM is required for some functionality. It will run successfully in 32-bit mode on 64-bit versions of Windows 7, 8 and 10. Please note: Apache OpenOffice is distributed as a 32-bit application.
