Altova XMLSpy, StyleVision, and Authentic include a comprehensive spell checker that provides support for numerous languages, as well as extended support for language peculiarities. This is the same highly acclaimed spell checker that is also used by Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, OpenOffice, and MacOS X. The spell checker is also compatible with the OpenOffice dictionaries.
In its standard configuration the spell checker in Altova software ships with 12 built-in languages and corresponding licenses, as indicated in the table below.
The selection of built-in dictionaries that ship with Altova software does not constitute any language preferences by Altova, but is largely based on the availability of dictionaries that permit redistribution with commercial software. Many of these dictionaries are available as part of a separate installer located below. It is your choice as to whether you can agree to the terms of the license applicable to the dictionary and whether the dictionary is appropriate for your use with the software on your computer.
Additional dictionaries for separate languages (and many more variations) are available for downloading here. Please note: for successful installation, the dictionaries.exe installation must be done with Administrator rights.
