Many recent PageFour users come from countries where English is not the first language, making it impossible for them to use the spell-checker when writing in their native tongue. The current version is heavily biased towards the English speaking world: all the menus and documentation are in English, as is this web-site, and it ships with only three dictionaries pre-installed - all English.

As a first step to rectifying this, I’m making a series of dictionaries in different languages available for download. These dictionaries cover most major Western languages - I’m afraid accommodating the East is a little beyond the scope of the product at this stage. The quality of these dictionaries may vary, as many different people were involved in their development.

Full details, as well as installation instructions can be found on the new Dictionaries page.

Though I would like to add these dictionaries to the PageFour installation, I’m afraid it would increase the download size substantially, so for the time being they will have to be downloaded manually where required. In the future, I may look into making PageFour more international - possibly allowing the menus to be localised using external files, but that’s some time away.
