HowTo / Notes

Native alternatives for non-windows platforms

There are some good alternatives to this application that might exist for your platform. You'll find a list on the main page of this application.

HOWTO

(Updated 2012-07-13)

Follow the instructions in the Microsoft Office (installer only) entry for installing. After installing:

To use the thesaurus, set riched20 to native.
Starting with 1.1.38, set gdiplus to native, builtin. This override is not needed for earlier versions, as prior to 1.1.38 the default behavior was to favor gdiplus that was installed by the app itself. If using native gdiplus causes Excel to crash, the most likely cause is nonconformant ttf fonts installed on your system. (Ubuntu in particular is known to be afflicted.) Run winetricks fontfix to fix this.

It is not necessary to install either of these dlls, as Office installs its own version. Do not set these overrides globally unless Office is installed in a separate wineprefix.
