Q: Do you have a cracked version of WordSmith for download?
A: No. WordSmith is a copyright product published by the Oxford University Press. It is protected by the copyright law.
Q: Where can I order a copy of WordSmith?
A: You can download the demo version of WordSmith from Mike Scott’s website (http://www.lexically.net/wordsmith/index.html). But you have to purchase a registration/activation code from the Oxford University Press or Lexically before you enjoy the full functionalities of the tool package.
Q: What are the differences between WordSmith 3 and 4?
A: In theory, anything WS3 can do WS4 can do better. WS4 has far fewer limitations, such as the number of concordance lines, etc. There are not supposed to be any functions which you can do in WS3 which are not in WS4 too. There are a whole lot of new functions and tools in WS4 too.
Q: How much will WordSmith 4 cost?
A: The single user licence for WordSmith 4 costs 50 pounds. Site licences are much more expensive.
Q: I have a legitimate and valid registration code for WordSmith 3, can I get a discount if I upgrade to WordSmith 4?
A: Yes. You can email your purchase details (your name, address, and the registration code) to the Oxford University Press and ask for a registration code for WordSmith 4. In that case, you will pay 10 pounds for a single user licence.
Q: Can WordSmith cope with Chinese corpora?
A: You can make concordances using WordSmith 3 if you have a Chinese Windows system or a language pack supporting Chinese. But other functions do not work reliably with Chinese data.
WordSmith 4 is Unicode-based, which means that it can work with all languages in the world reliably as long as your data is converted from native encodings into Unicode. The new Text Converter function in WordSmith 4 can do the conversion very easily.
