Andi_CostaRica Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 In the newly installed version 2 of Affinity Publisher, the words learned in the User Dictionary of version 1 are not imported. After the installation of version 2 I have also copied the User Dictionary file ( dictionary.propcol) of version 1 into the installation of version 2 (...<User>\.affinity\Common\2.0\user\dictionary.propcol). Unfortunately the ready "learned" words are not recognized in the preflight and displayed as incorrect. How can I transfer the laboriously learned words into the dictionary of version 2? Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 I haven't tried that, but I would have expected it to work. Are you sure the Spelling Language for the text is set correctly? stokerg 1 Quote -- Walt Designer, Photo, and Publisher V1 and V2 at latest retail and beta releases PC: Desktop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 64GB memory, AMD Ryzen 9 5900 12-Core @ 3.00 GHz, NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3090 Laptop: Windows 11 Pro, version 23H2, 32GB memory, Intel Core i7-10750H @ 2.60GHz, Intel UHD Graphics Comet Lake GT2 and NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 Laptop GPU. iPad: iPad Pro M1, 12.9": iPadOS 17.4.1, Apple Pencil 2, Magic Keyboard Mac: 2023 M2 MacBook Air 15", 16GB memory, macOS Sonoma 14.4.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff stokerg Posted July 17, 2023 Staff Share Posted July 17, 2023 Hi @Andi_CostaRica, I've just tried this on my Windows PC and moving the dictionary.propcol file from V1 folder to the V2 User folder, did move my learned word across, so this should work.

Andi_CostaRica Posted July 23, 2023 Author Share Posted July 23, 2023 It looks like I have lost my 'updated' dictionary.propcol file. There seems to be only one left with all the words I 'learned' missing.... Wondering now if there is a quick way to relearn these words. I have an already corrected book with 150 pages and about 100 words that I know are spelled correctly, that are now showing as incorrect in Preflight. Currently it looks like I have to right click on all the words to pick them up with 'Learn Spelling'. And that takes time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Are you sure you copied the right file from V1? You never gave the path to the one you copied from.

Andi_CostaRica Posted August 18, 2023 Author Share Posted August 18, 2023 I am not quit shure, but I think I messed up the files, and copied the new one over the old one. 🫢 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
