Hello,

I have a problem with the dictionary installed.
I live in Belgium, I use the spell checker very regularly, however when I request a correction Publisher informs me via a frame "The document contains languages (fr-BE) for which no dictionary is installed".
I use French to speak and write and absolutely don't need an "fr-BE" but if an "fr-FR" can do the job I ask it, I would like to change the fr-BE
I changed the language settings on my PC, my Affinity account is French
Could you help me resolve the issue?

1000x thank you

Welcome to the Serif Affinity Forums, @YannickCGSLB. :)

A similar problem, but with ‘en-BE’ instead of ‘fr-BE’, is discussed (at great length!) here:

I hope the linked thread will give you some ideas about how best to address the issue.

Hello,

I have just read the post you informed me, however nothing corresponds to my request. In fact I went to look in the Windows / programs / affinity / Publisher folder to find the corresponding package.
Of course there is no fr-BE but only FR. My question: how do I get AP to recognize only FR (fr-FR)?

Thanks in advance for those who had the problem and maybe solved this one

The Character panel contains a Language specification, where you can specify the language for Spelling and for Hyphenation. Select all your text, and change the language there.

If you use Text Styles, and use the defaults provided by Publisher, you can also change the language in the Text Style named Base, and the other Text Styles will inherit from it.

Edit: As a last resort, you could make a copy of the fr-FR dictionary directory and files and rename them to fr-BE.
