Thanks for the tip. I'm using Firefox and it seems to work, but sometimes the word I've highlighted and clicked doesn't appear in the pop-up window of the dictionary, instead, I have to manually input the word (which is sometimes difficult to do because I don't have the reading of the kanji). I wonder if it has something to do with Firefox? That leads me to another question. Is there a way to link to a dictionary web site lookup (such as alc.com) directly through right-clicking a word in Pages? Very clear instructions! Thanks for the tip.

I now have French-English and English-French which was the whole point of this exercise. :) http://davidtse916.wordpress.com/2008/01/24/adding-dictionaries-to-the-built-in-dictionary-application-in-leopard/ Oooh, and I also just found this useful (although a little out of date) post on adding more dictionaries using the DictUnifier app and StarDict dictionaries.

But it will work with Google's Chrome browser (which will be a 'native' Mac app) when it appears towards the end of this year. You could, for FF, try this add-on (https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1171). It uses its own dictionary, though. Also, I suspect you want bilingual translation, which that add-on doesn't do. It's halfway there tho! That useful & cute dictionary pop-up doesn’t support Firefox, unfortunately.
