GeirSol Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 Hi! I have opened an pdf and saved as APub The language is Norwegian with some italian and english. I've added my dictionaries as described and I find it under character > spelling However every word gets labeled spelling error, so the dictionary doesn't seem to work. How do I get this right?

walt.farrell Posted April 5, 2023 Posted April 5, 2023 If you downloaded the dictionaries directly from GitHub, rather than using the ones provided in the second post of the Serif Dictionary FAQ, there is a strong probability that you downloaded them incorrectly, and got HTML rather than plain text. You can browse each of the dictionary files with a text editor to confirm whether they are correct (plain text) or HTML. If HTML, you'll need to delete them and download them correctly, which is easiest done by downloading directly from the FAQ, not from GitHub.
