How to Check Spelling

The spelling checker checks for more than misspelled words.

Check your spelling using the Language palette

Nisus Writer Pro can check the spelling of the word where your insertion point appears whenever
you pause to think.

Keep the Language palette visible (either in the Tooldrawer or on your Desktop) the Language

palette unobtrusively interacts with your text.

If the word is misspelled the Language palette suggests corrections.

If the word is spelled correctly the Language palette switches to search in the Nisus Thesaurus
(English only) and may suggest alternative words.
