A woman and a buddy in the business sent me an email few days ago, telling me that Hunspell was working on her InDesign CC 2018. She sent me a copy of the area of InDesign of importance and I started digging. It turns out that there is a file in InDesign 2017 and 2018 which is broken, but in version 2015 it was in order and that explains the problem we have had.

I have been beta-testing InDesign 2018 for the last months and the programmers at Adobe have not been able to nail this matter down. I have reported this broken file now.

I made a new installer for InDesign CC 2018 and it will run Hunspell on all the latest versions of the Mac OsX, High Sierra and what ever. I have in the past made installers for some “obscure” languages which in fact are spoken by more people than live in Iceland. Gealic, Galacian and Latin. Maybe more. Now I know how to update it to the latest versions of InDesing and Mac system.

Send me an email if you need Hunspell for InCopy CC 2018.

Enjoy

  • Do you have installation instructions somewhere?

  • The official instructions from Adobe are here: https://helpx.adobe.com/indesign/kb/add_cs_dictionaries.html,

    I realised that the instructrions are not for everyone and that is why I build this installer. The instuctions for the installer are in the installer and I would recommend that people read it.

    Here are the most vital steps:

    Hafðu slökkt á InDesign á meðan íslensku Hunspell-gögnunum er hlaðið inn.

    Ef tölvan neitar að setja þetta inn og þá þarf að fara í
    System Preferences > Security & Privacy til þess að leyfa innsetningu.

    Ef þú þarft að breyta stillingum ættir þú að breyta þeim til baka eftir innsetningu.
    Eftir innsetningu er InDesign forritið ræst.
    Ekkert skjal á að vera opið.
    Farðu í: InDesign > Preferences > Dictionaries og stilltu á Icelandic.
    Veldu Hunspell sem orðskipti (Hyphenation) og stafsetningu (Spelling) og lagaðu í leiðinni gæsalappir fyrir íslensku í „“.

  • Bonjour
    Après avoir la mise à jour vers Indesign CC2018, j’ai eu en effet la satisfaction de voir que hunspell fonctionnait à nouveau.
    Mais voilà, la joie fut de courte durée. Hunspell a cessé subitement de fonctionner.
    Je suis sur macOS High Sierra.

    Qu’est-ce qu’on peut faire ?

    Hunspell m’est indispensable pour les textes que j’édite en latin…

    Hello
    After having the update to Indesign CC2018, I had indeed the satisfaction to see that hunspell was working again.
    But now, the joy was short-lived. Hunspell suddenly stopped working.
    I am on macOS High Sierra.

    What can we do ?

    Hunspell me is essential for the texts I publish Latin …
