Auxiliary.

Auxiliary Dictionaries are saved in .xml format. You will still be able to open
legacy version documents and auxiliary dictionaries created in version 10 or
earlier QuarkXPress 2015 and later versions, but those dictionaries will get
converted to .xml format.
Only one auxiliary dictionary at a time can be open for use with an document. An
auxiliary dictionary remains associated with an document until you click Close
in the Auxiliary Dictionary dialog box or until you open a different auxiliary
dictionary.
Auxiliary dictionaries are saved as separate files on your hard drive. The path to
a document’s auxiliary dictionary is saved with the project, so if you move an
open auxiliary dictionary to another folder or volume, the application will be
unable to find it.
To create or open an auxiliary dictionary without closing the Check Spelling
palette, click Add while a word you want to keep is highlighted.
To add all suspect words to an open auxiliary dictionary, press
Option+Shift/Alt+Shift and click Add All.
Hunspell Spell Checker Integration
QuarkXPress uses Dieckmann spell checking engine by default. But now it also
supports Hunspell spell checking engine along with Dieckmann. There is an
option in preference to select either of these engines for spell checking.
