German document and select English (US) as the text language.
For the sake of experiment you may select all the text in e.g. When I select all text in any Word document, go to Tools – Languages and change the language to another (spell checks of which are supported by my Word), it works REALLY slowly. I often need to work with documents in different languages. The lag here is minimal, but it is really annoying. Sometime when I type really fast Word does not even manages to display all the letters as I type. It is related to some professional instruments, so trust me, I know what I am talking about hereĪny office application starts up in 1-2 seconds, which is very good.įirst of all, there seems to be small lag in operation of both Word and Excel – in comparison with Windows 2010 versions. Sadly in my situation there is no substitute for MS Office, and on the Mac only Office 2011 is acceptable. Besides setting up my network environment I experimented with Office 2011 to see how things will go when/if I purchase a new iMac as my primary desktop computer.
For some time I’ve been planning to switch to Mac, and now I have a new Mac Mini Server (i7, 4 GB RAM, 7200 rpm HDD) to play with. I am a translator, so my work 100% depends on swift operation of Microsoft Word.
