Until then, enjoy hyphenation and dictionary in a great program.
is not a stable version and I am sure that when the stable version will be released these features will be working without tricks. Of course, you loose the ability to use these two features in English language. This solution is working with every language you want, if you download the suitable language files from LibreOffice, and rename them accordingly.
Type some Greek text, make full justification and from menu Extras choose Hyphenate Text and then Check Spelling.
Download the greek files (el_GR.aff, el_GR.dic and hyph_el_GR.dic) as a zip file from.I ‘ve download new dictionary and hyphenation files from LibreOffice Dictionaries but that didn’t do the trick. There are options for Greek language inside the Preferences of the program but they do not work. These two features was essential for the works I have to do. Whether youre creating brochures, business cards. The template options are varied and professional looking. It comes packed with preloaded templates or you can create your own document from scratch. The biggest problem for me was the inability of Scribus to use hyphenation and dictionary for Greek language. Scribus is a free DTP app, which gives you a useful variety of tools with which you can complete all manner of various projects. And the GUI is much better, and stability, and performance. After installing the new version (I ‘ve been using 1.4.9 stable) I was very pleased of the bugs that the developers team have solved.
I am not so keen on developers editions on software especially if you have work to do. After enough searching I ‘ve decided to check the new developer (not stable) version of Scribus. Good programs in good prices (check pageplus X9 and find a coupon for 25% discount on the internet). So, I tested two or three solutions of commercial software. I couldn’t afford buying QuarkXpress or pay the subscription for a year to Adobe, for Indesign. Recently, I’ve been trying to find a DTP program for two big jobs that I have. And that’s ok, at least there is support. There is no company support but only support from users in various forums. But this is the price you have to pay with free software. Of course there were a lot of bugs, and a different logic from other DTP programs. I ‘ve been using Scribus for many years, and for small print jobs. What a program! One of the best examples of free (as a beer) software, that offers so much to people and especially to graphic designers who do not have the money to buy QuarkXpress or Indesign.
