Having identified more than 2000 compact (diameter <=20arcsec) emission sources in the LMC, spectra were required to confirm emission character and object types. A major spectral confirmation programme was undertaken in 2004 November and December comprising five nights using 2dF on the Anglo-Australian Telescope (AAT), seven nights using the 1.9m at South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO), three nights using the FLAMES multi-object spectrograph on the ESO Very Large Telescope (VLT) UT2 and seven nights using the 2.3m Australian National University (ANU) telescope at the Siding Spring Observatory (SSO). Finally, in 2005 February, we used 6dF on the UKST over three half nights as a final high-dispersion multi-object follow-up. For the purpose of this paper we are presenting results obtained from the AAT and VLT with added confirmation from the 1.9m SAAO and 2.3m SSO observations. In addition, the VLT spectra, which probe faint emission lines in a subsample of the newly identified PNe, plus the UKST 6dF high-resolution results, will be the subject of a further paper in this series (Reid & Parker, in preparation).
