Although I don't use in Babylon, Babylon is not open software.

Therefore to any of us which not work with Babylon cannot see its code
and debug it to see if the problem there.
From the other point of view, we can't know what is the problem in OO
since we don't know exactly how Babylon work.

Nadav
Babylon does not recognize any word of OO.
Babylon apprears in blank when I call it, and then I have to fill the word
manually.
It this an OO bug or a Babylon one ?
Does anyone have experienced that ?

Hi Marcelo,
Babylon uses Microsoft interfaces to a small set of Microsoft products to
get highlighted words. Babylon is not engineered to interface with other
Microsoft products or with any non-Microsoft products. Babylon is in fact
an extension of Microsoft Office, a particular product. It is not a
general dictionary/translation utility that can be used with other
products.

Hi Nadine,
I guess you can say that I got this one completely wrong!

Anyone else have experience using Babylon with non-MS products (like
FireFox)?

Thanks for your comment, translated from below:
"Good morning, I use Babylon, and for me it works in Hebrew with all
software, including OpenOffice. Good day."

I do not use Babylon, but I've been told it used OCR to do its magic, that is,
it would take the displayed word as an image, and try to figure out from that
what the characters and the word were (at least in old versions of Babylon).
This allowed it to interact with many misbehaving programs, relying only on
the program's actual user-interface. If this is still the case, Marcelo's
problem may simply be a font issue.

Hope this helps,
Shai.
