Creating a custom dictionary for Acrobat and Reader.

I want to create a custom dictionary to be used by all of our users when they access a “forms document” through Adobe Reader/Acrobat.

Here are some of the issues:

The default dictionary name under Custom Dictionaries has a .clam extension.

Is there a way to edit this?

Does it contain the index settings for all the other added.txt and excluded.txt dictionary files?

The Reader's default location is under a user’s LocalLow folder.

C:\Users\PIN\ AppData\LocalLow\Adobe\Linguistics\Dictionaries\Adobe Custom Dictionary.

The Acrobat default location is under the user's Roaming folder.

C:\Users\PIN\ AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Linguistics\Dictionaries\Adobe Custom Dictionary\.

This is buried under the users profile and we need to be able to update these files on all the user’s workstations prior to log on.

This could be done by redirection of the new custom dictionary. What is the location of that setting in the registry?

Is there is a way to append to the standard dictionary file so as not to replace any setting that a user may have made to the dictionary?

Is this done to the .clam or .txt file outside of the Adobe Reader application?

What is the “All” setting in the dictionary?

Does that imply the program will look through all the dictionaries?

Is there a way to create a new dictionary name that would appear under the preferences\spelling\dictionaries list. Is there an Index file that would point to a newly created Dictionary folder?
