Excerpt

1. Overview

The custom dictionary is a special mechanism that allows creating company-wide dictionaries that are intended to extend the vocabulary of the standard dictionary with custom words specific to your industry, domain, etc.

2. Dictionary format

There are The application supports two types of custom dictionary formats supported by the application: textual textual (*.txt)  and and native compiled compiled (*.clx). Note that the second, compiled format, is supported for English by the WebSpellChecker versions less than 5.24.0.0.

  • A textual dictionary is stored in text lexicon files (*.txt). It has a simple structure where each line contains only one word.

Note

The last line in such a file must be empty, otherwise the last term in the list won't be recognized by the engine.

  • A native dictionary is a compiled version of a textual dictionary (*.clx). Compiling a custom dictionary into the native format will significantly improve the performance of the application, especially when the number of terms in the dictionary is over several hundreds.
