Spell-checking and language dictionaries
Check spelling
You can spell-check a selected range of text, in all of the text in a story, in all stories in a document, or in all stories in
all open documents. Misspelled or unknown words, words typed twice in a row (such as “the the”), and words with
possible capitalization errors are highlighted. In addition to checking the spelling in a document, you can also enable
dynamic spelling so that potentially misspelled words are underlined while you type.
When you check spelling, the dictionary for the languages you assigned to the text is used. You can quickly add words
to the dictionary.
Set spelling preferences
1 Choose Edit > Preferences > Spelling (Windows) or InDesign > Preferences > Spelling (Mac OS).
2 Do any of the following:
• Select Misspelled Words to find words that do not appear in the language dictionary.
• Select Repeated Words to find duplicate words such as “the the.”
• Select Uncapitalized Words to find words (such as “germany”) that appear in the dictionary only as capitalized
words (“Germany”).
• Select Uncapitalized Sentences to find uncapitalized words following periods, exclamation points, and question
marks.
3 Select Enable Dynamic Spelling to underline potentially misspelled words while you type.
4 Specify the underline color of misspelled words (words not found in the user dictionaries), repeated words (such as
“the the”), uncapitalized words (such as “nigeria” instead of “Nigeria”), and uncapitalized sentences (sentences that
don’t begin with a capital letter).
Check spelling
1 If your document includes foreign-language text, select the text and use the Language menu on the Character panel
to specify the language for that text.
2 Choose Edit > Spelling > Check Spelling.
Spell-checking begins.
