    On my tablet the office suite I use needed to have a dictionary files in order to fully use the editing components. After using the app I thoroughly enjoy using it. Definitely worth checking out. Only thing that would make it better is to do a free trial before being forces to buy before using... That being said it is priced at $14.99 which is still priced really well.

    This is one of the dictionaries that is compatible with Office Suite Pro 6. It also happenes to be the most comprehensive of the offerings, with over 160,000 entries. If you get OSP6, then this is the perfect dictionary to have(you'll probably never see those annoying little red lines while typing again).
