oXygen XML Editor Blog /////////////////////////////////////////// Checking terminology when editing in Oxygen XML Editor Posted: 15 Jun 2017 11:28 PM PDT http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/AboutOxygenXmlEditor/~3/OPQOXtUW3J8/checking-terminology-when-editing-in.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email In this blog post I will try to give a general overview about the current possibilities you have available to impose your own language checking rules when working with Oxygen XML Editor. Builtin support Oxygen comes bundled with the popular Hunspell spell checker and besides the regular bundled dictionaries for English, German, Spanish and French it allows you to install new dictionaries, either for other languages or custom dictionaries (for example dictionaries of medical terms) which you can build separately: https://www.oxygenxml.com/doc/versions/19.0/ug-editor/topics/spell-dictionar.... Besides the spell checker, Oxygen also has support for Auto-correct and you can add your own Auto-correct pairs to Oxygen. Commercial alternatives Acrolinx is a very popular commercial tool for checking content for consistency and terminology. The plugins Acrolinx developed for Oxygen standalone, Oxygen Eclipse plugin and Oxygen Web Author allow you to run the Acrolinx checker directly from inside the application. HyperSTE is yet another popular commercial tool for checking content and terminology. They also have a plugin for Oxygen standalone. Open source alternatives LanguageTools is an Open Source proofreading program for English, French, German, Polish, and more than 20 other languages . There is an open source plugin for Oxygen available on GitHub. The DITA Open Toolkit terminology checker plugin from Doctales contains Schematron rules checking that various words adhere to the terminology dictionaries which are custom built using DITA. Building your own terminology checker The fastest and simplest way to build a simple terminology checker is by using Schematron rules. The Doctales plugin is a good example for this. At some point, as the terminology dictionary keeps growing you may encounter delays and slow downs when editing the documents and validating it using the custom Schematron rules. So an alternative to this is by using our Author SDK to build your own Oxygen plugin which can use our API to check the content and then add highlights. The LanguageTools open source plugin may be a good starting example for this. -- You are subscribed to email updates from "oXygen XML Editor Blog."
