MICROSOFT PROOFING TOOLS 2002 WIN32 ENGLISG OLP C The English version of Microsoft Office 2000 comes with proofing tools for English, Spanish, and French. To check spelling in other languages, use the Microsoft Office 2000 Proofing Tools. These Proofing Tools provide the fonts, localized templates, and spelling and grammar checkers you need to create and edit documents in different languages when using Office programs. Other items youll find in the Proofing Tools are AutoCorrect lists, AutoSummarize rules (Microsoft Word only), and - for Asian languages - Input Method Editors (IMEs).

Word breakers, Chinese translator, bilingual dictionaries, Hanja dictionary for Korean, Hangual/Hanja converter, and additional fonts are available for Arabic, Chinese, Hebrew, Japanese, and Korean.

The Spell Check identifies possible misspellings in a text file by comparing the contents of the file with a database of accepted spellings. Spell Check is one of the most frequently used features of Microsoft Word. Spellers can perform more sophisticated tasks, than simply comparing terms from a database. For some languages, inflectional information (i.e. variations of a word) is introduced in algorithms to fine-tune the output. This is the case for highly inflectional languages such as Swedish or Romanian.

The grammar checker corrects sentences using a system of rules that defines the grammatical structure of a language. The grammar is a valuable tool that assists writers of any level. The Word application incorporates this tool and runs on the background, making corrections without the users being aware of them, or prompting the users for improved suggestions.

The thesaurus allows a user to look up synonyms for a particular word. The thesauri in Proofing Tools perform more sophisticated tasks, than simply retrieving direct synonyms for a given term from a database. Special algorithms in thesauri extract inflectional information (i.e. variations of a word) from a stem word (i.e. base word) to provide a series of synonyms with the same inflection. For example, looking up the word running would yield the possible synonym jogging.

You can use AutoCorrect to automatically detect and correct typos, misspelled words, grammatical errors, and incorrect capitalization. For example, if you type teh plus a space, then AutoCorrect replaces what you have typed with "the." You can also use AutoCorrect to quickly insert text, graphics, or symbols.

Hyphenation helps eliminate gaps or "rivers of white" in justified text. Hyphenation also helps maintain even line lengths in narrow columns. The hyphenation tool allows a user to connect (as two words) or divide (as a word at the end of a line of print) two or more terms with a hyphen. Some languages are more or less flexible on hyphenation rules.

AutoSummarize identifies the key points in a document for you to share with others or quickly scan. AutoSummarize determines key points by analyzing the document and assigning a score to each sentence. Sentences that contain words used frequently in the document are given a higher score. You then choose a percentage of the highest-scoring sentences to display in the summary. AutoSummarize works best on well-structured documents such as reports, articles, and scientific papers.

An Input Method Editor (IME) is a program that allows you to enter Asian text in programs; it converts your keystrokes into Asian characters. Often the only visual indication that an IME is installed on a computer is a floating toolbar for controlling the conversions, and an indicator on the Windows taskbar. Different Asian languages require different IMEs - for example, to enter Japanese text, use the Japanese IME.
