Automatic proofreading
The Proof Reader checks for grammar and readability errors in text in your
publication. You can use Proof Reader from either PagePlus or WritePlus.
To start automatic proofreading:
1. To check a single story, first make sure the text or text object is
selected.
2. Choose Proof Reader... from the Tools menu.
3. If necessary, click the Options button to set options for proofreading,
including a spell-check option and the level of formality (with checks
for rule types).
4. Select options to Check currently selected story only, Check all
stories on the current page, or Check all stories in my publication
to select the scope of the search.
5. Click Start to begin proof reading.
When a problem is found, PagePlus highlights the problem word. The dialog
offers alternative suggestions, and you can choose to Change or Ignore this
instance (or all instances) of the problem word.
6. Proofreading continues until you click the Close button or the process
is completed.
You can use a Thesaurus to find synonyms, definitions, and
variations of words in your publication text, via the Tools menu.
See PagePlus Help for more details.
