NOTE:
When working with multiple languages, you can add a main dictionary in another language so you will have the ability to spellcheck in multiple languages. When you click the Add button, you will need to browse to where the application's dictionaries are located. The default location is: C:\Program Files (x86)\[applicationdirectory]\Client\data\spellcheck. You will have to add your additional language dictionaries in this location in order to select them from the Spellcheck options.
- Optionally, under Custom Dictionaries, perform one of the following:
NOTE:
When you use the spellcheck, it compares the words in your document with those in the main dictionary. The main dictionary contains most common words, but it might not include proper names, technical terms, or acronyms that you use. In addition, some words might be capitalized differently in the main dictionary than what you want in your document. Adding such words or capitalization to a custom dictionary prevents the spellcheck from flagging them as misspelled words.
