Checking spelling
The Check Spelling command compiles
a list of misspelled words in a document
and offers a list of alternative spellings.
If Illustrator has incorrectly identified a
word as misspelled, you can either skip
the word without changing it in the doc-
ument or add the word to the dictionary
list. These new words are then added to
the custom file AI User Dictionary in the
Plug-ins folder. You can edit this list of
words as well.
To check the spelling in your
document:
1
Choose Type > Check Spelling. The
Check Spelling dialog box displays a list
of words not found in the current Adobe
Illustrator dictionary.
2 To list separately words that are mis-
spelled in the same way but are in differ-
ent cases (such as Mispell and mispell),
select the Case Sensitive option.
