Joansz Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 The publication I'm working on is for the American Branch of the Richard III Society (I'm the volunteer editor) has an article on paleography where there are a lot of words with medieval spelling. Of course spellcheck's head exploded, but my issue is with preflight. How do I turn off so-called spelling errors on preflight without having to create an entirely new dictionary? To give you an idea of what preflight flags, here's a transciption of the first line of a will: In the Name of god Amen the xvj day of the moneth of Juny the yer[e] of o[ur] lord god Ml CCCC Preflight also flags ip and email addresses, which I think should be automatically excluded by the software. I do need preflight for everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 There are multiple ways, @Joansz. One simple way is to turn off Spell Checking completely. Select all the text, and in the Character panel, scroll down to Languages, and for Spelling you can choose None. Another: Create a new (Custom) Preflight profile, and Disable the Spelling function. For example, click the Profile field, choose Custom. Click the panel options (burger menu) and choose Edit Profile. Scroll to Spelling, and set it to Disabled.

Option 2 is exactly what I was looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
