The LingvoCompact dictionaries are abridged versions of the LingvoUniversal dictionaries. They provide only the most common and frequent translations and do not display optional text, such as usage examples, synonyms and antonyms.
The structure of entries has also been altered to make the dictionaries more compact. Please note that this simplified entry structure means that:
Copying text to the clipboard from Internet Explorer (for Pocket PC/ Pocket PC 2002) and MS Reader has certain peculiarities which make on-the-fly translation via a hardware button impossible. To translate words and phrases from these programs, copy the text to the clipboard via the pop-up menu, launch Lingvo, and tap the Translate Clipboard button.
To view some user dictionaries created by independent lexicographers you may have to install special fonts (such as Arial Unicode MS). These dictionaries should be also indexed in the ABBYY Lingvo 10 for PC shell so that their word list and card could be displayed.
