<h3>Apache OpenOffice - Full Installation vs. Language Pack</h3>
- <p>If you want to use more than a single language in Apache OpenOffice then it is recommended to use
- <a href='http://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Languagepack' title='What is a language pack?'>language packs</a>. The idea is to
- have a base language, e.g., English (US) and several other languages without a need to install for every language a full
- installation. Due to this it has to be installed over a full installation with the same version number and platform. The
- language can be changed via the menu "Tools - Options - Language Settings - Languages - User Interface".</p>
-
- <p>They are not integrated in the full installation file and it contains only resource files to show, e.g., menus, dialogs,
- error messages in your favorite language - but there is no program logic. It may contain translated Help content as well.
- Language packs are created only when also a full installation file is available. In case it is not fully localized, some
- elements of the UI or help topics will display in English as default language.</p>
+ <p>By default Apache OpenOffice is offering a single language when installing a full installation. Full installation means
+ that all application modules (Write, Calc, Impress, etc.) are available. The term does not belong to languages.</p>
+
+ <p>When you want to use one or more languages in OpenOffice for the user interface (for example, menus, dialogs and
+ messages ) and help topics then it is recommended to use language packs. The idea is to have a base installation for,
+ e.g., English (US) and additional languages on top without a need to install a full installation for every language. For
+ this every language pack has to be installed over a full installation. Important is that the same version number and
+ platform has to fit to the base installation (for example, it is not possible to install a language pack from release
+ 4.0.0 over the base installation of 4.1.0).</p>
+
+ <p>Language packs contain only resource files to show menus, dialogs, messages, etc. in your favorite language but there
+ is no program logic. In case text is not fully localized some elements of the user interface or help topics will display
+ in English as default language.</p>
+
+ <p>After the language pack is installed the new language can be switched via the menu "Tools - Options - Language
+ Settings - Languages - User Interface".</p>
+
+ <p><b>Please note:</b><br />
+ Since OpenOffice 3.4.1 dictionaries are no longer included in the installation files. Dictionaries are not part of the
+ OpenOffice project but stored on the <a href="http://extensions.openoffice.org/en/search?f[0]=field_project_tags%3A157"
+ title="Get Apache OpenOffice Extensions and Dictionaries" target="_blank">extension webpage</a> (hosted by
+ <a href="http://sourceforge.net/" title="Sourceforge - Download, Develop and Publish Free Open Source Software"
+ target="_blank"> Sourceforge.net</a>). Therefore they get improved independent of the release schedule of OpenOffice and
+ are offered separately. Then they can be updated at any time when new versions are released.</p>
