Other installation options
Install multiple languages
To install multiple languages you download and install separate language files (so-called zhfst files).
NB!
The receipt below does not apply for
the MS Office proofing tools. For those, you install the complete
proofing tool for every language.
- Download one or more zhfst files:
Language: Version: Documentation and source code: North Sámi
4.0 Project documentation and source code. Julev Sámi
4.0 Project documentation and source code. South Sámi
4.0 Project documentation and source code. - Move the downloaded zhfst file(s) to one of the directories searched by the spellers:
- Windows: <User>\AppData\Local\voikko\3
(≤ Windows 7: C:\Documents and Settings\<User>\Local Settings\Application Data\voikko\3) - OSX: ~/Library/Spelling/voikko/3
- Linux: ~/.voikko/3
- Windows: <User>\AppData\Local\voikko\3
- Log out and log back in
If you need other languages than the Sámi ones, you can find more on divvun.org.
Nightly builds
The spelling checkers for MS Office on Windows are rebuilt every night with our latest linguistic updates.
NB!
These versions are not properly tested, and we
do not guarantee that they work properly, nor that they won't crash.
Use on your own risk! If there are problems, just uninstall, and
then reinstall the latest official version anew.

else.
