Be sure to look at the OOo site. http://www.openoffice.org/

There is a lot of activity with supporting various languages. I have not looked into it or I would say more.

Some more pointers
  http://native-lang.openoffice.org/
  http://es.openoffice.org/
    http://es.openoffice.org/servlets/ProjectMailingListList

I'll mention k12ltsp on the OOo discuss list again, suggesting someone could join us that knows that sort of thing.

Hope this helps.
