Bookmark words in dictionary

Why is such an option not provided?? Any work around that will enable me to bookmarks certain words in dictionary so that I can go through them easily later on..

Sounds reasonable.
Something strange happened: I renamend my DE file, wrote a name that was unknown to Spell and chose Learn Spelling. As expected, a new DE file was created. I deleted the new DE file, quit and relaunched Pages — and Pages still knows the spelling! I searched my HD for other places whre AppleSpell could safe the information but found nothing.
Regarding opening the custom spelling files: I got best results with (Aqua)Emacs. Emacs displays the delimiter (^@) between the words which appear to be lined up in Textedit.

  • Problem with creating bookmarks (word- pdf)

    Index entries between section number and heading in my word document prevent the creation of the section number in the PDF bookmarks.
    I'm using Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro (9.4.5) and Microsoft Word 2007.
    Does anyone know the problem, and more importantly, does anyone have a solution?
    Thanks in advance.
    Manuel

    What version of WORD and Acrobat? I just ran PDF Maker with WORD 2007 and AA8 and turned off the headings 3 that were in the document and they did not show up in the bookmarks.

  • Unwanted bookmarks, word 2007

    Hi,
    I'm using Word 2007 and the trial version von Acrobat Pro 9 V9.3.0 in Windows 7 (all german versions).
    I created a word document with many headings (heading 1 to 5).
    I want to convert this doc into a pdf file, but I only want the headings 1 and 2 to be converted into bookmarks in the pdf file. I used the settings window to deselect every item except "heading 1" and "heading 2" (in the bookmarks tab) before I created the pdf file. As a result I got a pdf file with bookmarks down to level 5, not only heading 1 and 2 as I expected.
    I appreciate any help.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards.
    Alex

    I have a similar issue. Using all the same software: Word 2007, Windows 7, Adobe Acrobat 9.3.
    Bookmarks are created in Acrobat based on my selections in the Preferences menu in MS Word 2007. But they do not jump appropriately; some appear at the top of the page, some in the middle, some with space preceeding and with differing spaces. And I can't distinguish a pattern.
    I also have a numeric character string that's inserted before a StyleRef built into to my Word headers. I've never seen this one before.
    Please help!  I'm on a deadline, have found nothing in online searches or Adobe help/manuals, and am feeling quite helpless. Crossing fingers and saying prayers not yet producing results...

  • Bookmark Word index

    When I create PDFs using PDFMaker / Acrobat Pro 9, it converts TOC entries and footnote markers to clickable links but not index entries - is there any way to enable this?

    Thanks Bill, yes I've created an index in Word but the links don't convert as they do for a table of contents.
    In PDFmaker, enabling Create Bookmarks, Add Links, Convert cross-references, Convert footnotes, Enable advanced tagging, and all options on the Bookmarks tab doesn't have any effect.
    Word doesn't build an index in quite the same way as a ToC (in Word itself the index entries aren't bookmarked) so I'm a bit pessimistic about this feature being in PDFMaker but it'd be nice if someone could confirm this. I've only tested in Word 2003 but I doubt 2007 works differently.

  • Missing words in dictionary

    The dictionary shows "US", but yet "first", "floor" and "confidential" are missing from the diccionary when trying to check spelling.
    Since when those words were removed from US dicctionaries?

    No, ligatures and stuff like that were one of the things I checked. Regular Times font is used, BUT…
    The original text seemed to be scanned and wrongly converted to ligatures or exported from a text file that did use ligature'd font.
    I guess it was exported, since the line breaks are also lost so there are MANY joined words (missing space)
    Good guess Peter! Thanks.

  • Replacing a word in Dictionary

    I have a problem when incorrectly typing the as "teh" which I am very prone to to do.
    When I try to correct it, in Apple's Mail (v 6.5 1508), by right clicking (mountain lion) it tells me that the word "teh" exists when right clicking on it, I get the choice to Look Up "Teh" and gives this dictionary explanation for it.
    "Teh" is an Internet slang neologism most frequently used as an English article, based on a common typographical error of "the". Teh has subsequently developed grammatical usages distinct from the. It is not common in spoken or written English outside technical or leetspeak circles, but when spoken, it is pronounced /tɛ/ or /tə/.
    When I type in TextEdit (v 1.8), the word "teh" is automatically changed to "the" as I have it in the text substitutions in the system preferences.
    In Apple's Pages (09 v4.3) when typing "teh", it is underlined in red and right clicking gives me the choice of correcting it.
    How can I remove the reference to teh in the dictionary for Apple's Mail?

    The definitions dictionary has nothing to do with spell check. You can't edit the New Oxford Dictionary dictionary, and it wouldn't have any effect on spell check even if you could. (In fact, the "definition" of teh that you are seeing is from Wikipedia, not from a dictionary at all.)
    It sounds like spell check might not be working in Mail. Is it turned on in Mail?

  • Match the given word with dictionary

    Hi all
    I have an issue .
    I need to check the given word from the user input is a dictionary word or not.
    if it is a dictionary word then i am doing some functionality.
    how can i do that?
    thanx in advance

    Load a dictionary of words into a Map of some sort. Use the user's word as the key into the map - if the map returns null, then it can be assumed to not be a real word. You will probably want to provide some mechanism so that the user can populate the map with proper names and other stuff that's not in the dictionary.
    To obtain a (raw text) dictionary with which to populate the Map you could look at the files in the /usr/share/dict folder on most Linux systems. If you don't have one to hand you can probably obtain and download one with a bit of Googling.

  • Deleting words in dictionary

    Hello, I am using OSX 10.8.4
    I suffer from MS and I am trying to cope with using a conventional mouse with a scroll wheel and a conventional left and right click mouse in my left hand =.
    I have been using the text edditor programe and I inadvertanly added the incoreect spelling of a word to the text editor distionary and want to delete it.
    Whan I googled the subjuect I got a link to the Appple forums which suggested :
    Those are stored in a plain text file in /Users/"username"/Library/Spelling/LocalDictionary. Open it up in TextEdit, delete what you want and then save it.
    I cannot find this link and It might be my uderstanding my computer shows Applications> Library> System> Users> as a list not one after the other i might add.
    If I click on users ~ I have  my user name but no library spelling.
    Could somone point me in the right direction please ?

    The User Library is now hidden by default.
    Either hold down the option key while using the Finder “Go To Folder” command and select your user Library in your home folder or use the Finder “Go To Folder” command and enter ~/Library/Spelling/LocalDictionary
    If you prefer to make your user library permanently visible, use the Terminal command found below.
    Show User Library
    You might want to bookmark the command. I had to use it again after I installed 10.8.4. I have also been informed that if you drag the user library to Finder it will remain visible.
    If you open TextEdit and go to the Edit menu/Spelling and Grammar/Show Spelling you should also be able to change it there by typing in the incorrect spelling, correct it, and then hit Change.

  • MS Word Custom Dictionary

  • Removing a word from Dictionary

    Hi,
    can anyone suggest how I can remove a word from the UK Dictionary.
    There appears to be a word in the User Dictionary that isn't coming up when spell checked but cannot be seen in Added, Removed or Ignored words in the UK dictionary! What should I do in order to get this word spell checked again, please?
    This issue appears in new, and existing Indesign documents.
    InDesign CS4 (Mac) v.6.0.4

    Dictionaries are stored in .clam format in ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Linguistics/Dictionaries/Adobe Custom Dictionary.
    There's a 3-letter designation for the language and then files like added.clam and exception.txt. These are in Proximity Dictionary format.
    I would start by exporting your current user dictionary to a file, with Edit -> Spelling -> Dictonary... and then Export...;
    check the file and see if it contains oolong (or a variant). If so, remove it, and then Import... with the Replace Dictionary checkbox.
    If that doesn't work, make a backup copy of your user dictionary (at the above path), and then delete that file. Check and make sure you're OK. Then try importing the user dictionary wors you care about.
    If you're still sunk, well, you could reinstall InDesign...

  • Bookmark word

    bonjour,
    j'ai des difficultés avec le toolkit "insérer une image de commande dans rapport word". En effet j'ai un rapport préformaté auquel je souhaite insérer un graphe. Le problème c'est que j'ai à chaque fois "invalid bookmark" qui apparait. J'ai essayé avec le rapport d'une autre personne (préformaté également) avec le même programme et ça marche. Dans ce cas peut-on m'expliquer comment cela fonctionne y'a t-il une manipulation à faire dans le document sous word?.... Merci pour votre aide.

    Bonjour,
    Pourriez-vous préciser quelle version de LabVIEW vous utilisez et envoyer un VI reproduisant le problème ainsi que deux rapports word préformatés: un avec lequel ça marche et un avec lequel l'erreur apparait.
    Celà devrait me permettre de reproduire le problème et de travailler sur la question.
    Cordialement,

  • RH8: Add words to dictionary

    OK. I've come around again to an old issue that I want to solve. I need to add about 1000 words to the RH8 spell check dictionary. Is there any way to do this besides adding them one at a time? Is there a dictionary file that I can just add words to somewhere?

  • Accidentally Adding Words to Dictionary - How to Correct

    This is the most annoying thing I have with my Mac. When using the autospell check, "add to Dictionary", and the correct spelling are right next to each other and I often hit the wrong one. Now I have added mispelled words to the dictionary.
    How do I correct this?

    If the control key solution doesn't work, you can edit the user (or "custom") dictionary by going to your library and manually deleting the words. If using English, you will find it here: ~/Library/Spelling/en
    (If another language, there will be another abbreviation instead of "en"). Click on "en" to open it up and you will find the words you added.

  • Adding words to dictionary

    I used to be able to add words, names, etc to the dictionary in AW. Did I inadvertently turn it off? When I do a spell check, the learn button is greyed out.

    There is a limit to how many words AW can learn. Quoting Peggy:
    The user dictionary might be full. AppleWorks 6 has a limit of 2883 words in the user dictionary.
