LibreOffice spell check not working.

[bhishan]

Ubuntu 12.04 | Dell Inspiron 1525

Although the check spelling and grammar button is selected, the spell check is not working in LibreOffice. Anyone got a fix for that?

Do you get any errors?

What happens when you run language support from the dash?

Make sure that aspell & myspell in your language are installed.

Check the preferences. LibreOffice has the nasty habit of "collecting" words - something half-typed gets added, something mis-typed gets added before I can correct it, etc. I end up having to disable all sorts of autocorrect, autoformat, and formatting options to get things working properly.
