tinymce spellchecker dictionaries

NanoSpell users have free access to a wide selection of international spellchecking dictionaries. The vocabulary can also be fine tuned and customized by the developer.

Selecting Dictionaries

The dictionary which NanoSpell will use for spellchecking can be set using the nanospell_dictionary setting which is Global English by default.

Example:

tinymce.init({
	selector:'textarea',
	external_plugins: {"nanospell": "/path/to/nanospell/plugin.js"},
	nanospell_dictionary: "es" 
});

To use multiple dictionaries at the same time (useful for multi-lingual documents) use a comma separated list such as:

 nanospell_dictionary: "en,fr"

Installing Dictionaries

Before a dictionary can be used, it must be installed. NanoSpell ships with only English installed.

  1. Download any dictionaries you would like to use from the list below
  2. Unzip and copy the '.dic' file to nanospell/dictionaries
  3. Ensure that the server (or ‘everyone’) has read permissions to all files in that folder.
