Today, I have download dict-en.oxt, open the Writer and gone to Tools > Extension Manager >Add and tried adding it, but it still does the same. The Langauge settings appear to be for English (UK) as well. I am also yet to shut down my computer and restart everything and hope the fix is permanent. Gone to Spelling which identifies the text langauge as English (UK), but then highlights the word 'Title' as incorrect. I am not not certain what was the special step that made this work.

If it wasn't for this informal forum where people give their advice for free in the interests of keeping OO going, then frankly I'd have been stuffed and would probably been forced into a costly alternative like M$ Word etc. This is a pretty serious problem when it occurs and I just wish there was a quicker way of finding the solution. (3) Most of the suggestions on sites like Yahoo etc were irrelevant.

(2) I would love to know just WHY this problem occurred, in simple plain non-teccy English of the sort that RoryOF uses, and what - if anything - we can do to stop it happening again. However, I did have a folder numbered `4' and carried out RoryOF's instructions on that folder instead, with total success.

(1) RoryOF's guidance refers to a folder numbered`3'. While I'm here, can I make a couple of points in passing:. RoryOF's solution worked first time for me so total respect to you RoryOF. After googling the problem for weeks, I eventually stumbled on this forum and this particular page. To suddenly find that ALL your text is underlined is infuriating, especially when there is no simple solution. Exporting to IDML and opening that file tends to clear out any kind of oddities like this, leaving you with a clean document to work with.I want to say a huge thankyou to RoryOF for his advice on sorting the problem - and believe me this is an intensely irritating problem especially for those of us who use Open Office Writer for a living. In other words, some subtle corruption may have snuck into the document. And fortunately, that did work - the red squiggly lines went away. If it wasn’t our expectation or assumption that was wrong, then perhaps it really was InDesign after all? I suggested that she export the file as IDML (or INX in CS3) and open up that file in InDesign.

So I made this suggestion to Jenny, and, um, unfortunately it was not the correct answer. LanguageTool adds advanced spelling, grammar and style correction to OpenOffice and many other services and apps. Perhaps the language was set up wrong in the paragraph style (in the Advanced Character Formats pane of the Edit Paragraph Styles dialog box), or perhaps someone just selected the wrong thing when moving too quickly. In fact, in this case, if you click inside the paragraph and look at the Control Panel (in character format mode) you’ll see that InDesign thinks these words are Spanish: (If you don’t see those lines under the misspelled words in your documents, try turning on Edit > Spelling > Dynamic Spelling.)Ĭan you think of a reason that InDesign might think a word like “have” or “example” might be incorrect? Here’s one reason: The spelling is based on the language assigned to the text, and if you choose the wrong language, InDesign can’t spell check it properly. For example, here’s some text:Īs you can see, almost all the words have red squiggly lines under them, indicating that these words are spelled wrong. The problem is usually not InDesign, but rather with our expectations or assumptions. I love this kind of problem: InDesign not acting the way we expect it to. While I do have Misspelled Words with red under the Spelling preferences, I cannot figure out why it thinks basic words like ?that?, ?rather?, ?industry? etc. I have a file that has an excessive number of red squiggly underlines where words are in fact not misspelled.
