-To install a dictionary for a language that doesn't ship with the viewer by default:
-* Download the desired language from http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/dictionary
-* Unzip it (if the file ends with .oxt you'll need to rename it to .zip first before you can unpack it)
-* Click "Browse" on the spell checker "Import Dictionary" floater and navigate to the folder you unzipped the dictionary to
-* Select the Dictionaries.xcu file as the file to open
-* Type a friendly name for the dictionary in the "Language" textbox (i.e. French, German, Dutch, ...)
-* Click "Import" to actually import the dictionary
-===Notes===
-If the Dictionaries.xcu file does not exist in the unzipped folder, or if you're trying to import a dictionary from elsewhere, you'll need to manully select the .dic file to import: for most dictionaries it will start with an abbreviation of the language (i.e. fr for French, de for German, nl for Dutch, ...).
-If you see multiple .dic files, try to import the simplest name first (i.e. a filename that does not contain things like "hyph" or "thes").
