Hi, I have Office 2004 Teacher/Student for Mac. I was wondering if
proofing tools exist for Czech and if so, where can I find/buy them.
Thanks for any info.
Unlike WinWord, there is no extra proofing tools CD that you can buy for
MacWord. All versions come with all languages that are available. I don't
think Czech is among them, so you will have to go to third-party tools
(I'm pretty sure I installed all available languages and don't see it on my
installation).
I think you can try CocoAspell for spelling--at least, that's the tool I've
heard of. There may be others, try searching the web. I'm not sure about
grammar check. Others have suggested pasting into TextEdit to use the
spellchecking there. If you search the archives of the Word newsgroup,
you'll find suggestions for various languages.

Also, look for a internet community of Czech-speaking Mac users. They
might know of locally produced supplements to Word, and probably know the
best approaches.
If you want definitions, you definitely need a third-party solution for all
languages other than English.
Sorry not to have better news.
