Komatös Posted July 29, 2021 Posted July 29, 2021 Hello @Les_Aust Which language is selected in Preferences --> General? Probably United Kingdom. Change the UI language to US and you are done.

The Auto-Correct setting you have shown is not related to Spellchecking. The Language for Spellchecking is determined by a combination of: The User Interface Language specified in the General Preferences, as @Komatös mentioned; followed by The Language specification in the Character panel for the text or the Language specified in the Text Style applied to the text. And is also somehow related to what you tell your OS, but I've never experimented enough to figure out that part of it for Windows.

Suetonius Posted February 14, 2022 Posted February 14, 2022 Just to say thanks to Walt. I (in my naivity) thought that setting spelling checker to UK English in Preferences would mean the spell checker would spell check in UK English, but the darned thing kept on presenting me with Americanisms. Sure enought, when I looked at the text style set (placed from Word), there was US English. When I changed that, all was sweetness and light (well, sort of). Thanks again for saving my sanity 🤪 walt.farrell 1 Quote
