Can pages spell check in Spanish?

My daughter is doing a paper for her Spanish class, and would like to spell check the document, Does Pages have the capability to spell check in languages other than English?
Thanks for any and all helpful info.

Aha, so that's the reason you're going after me. You've decided that what I posted today has zero to do with a poster who posted years ago, so I need to have my hand slapped.
Can I point out that the title of this thread is "can pages spell check in Spanish?" The title didn't limit the question to one particular version.
Do you not realize that for everyone who writes a post about their problem there are many other people who simply search the archives to get their problem addressed? Instead of posting a brand new question they search the archives and solve their own problems without ever being detected. The lurkers as they are often called.
Take me for example, I was searching this very issue today, came across this very post, and the solution you offered back in January of 2012 didn't work for me. So, I poked around in Pages until I found the current solution to my current version of Pages. And, I added it to the discussion for the sake of others like me who might find the January 2012 solution not workable for them either. So, they wouldn't have to poke around and work it out for themselves.
I hope this is not how you treat everyone who contributes to the knowledge base. Try to be a little patient if you will with the ones of us who don't hang around here day in and day out. While we may not know your rules for the sandbox, we're just trying to be helpful. No need to come after us with your guns blazing.

You need to give more details:
1. What version of Pages?
2. Where did you get the Greek dictionary from and exactly how did you install it?
3. Are you applying the language to your text?

Use spell check for German and English

Is it possible to use German and the English spell check but not switching 'languages feature' in system preferences all the time, for a Mac book with intel core 2 / 10.5.5?
Maybe putting an icon on the dock to use when an e-mail is typed in German and switch later again to English?

flowerpotter,
I don't know about Apple's Pages, but with Microsoft Word you can turn on spelling and grammar and it will work as you type. I find that useful for possibly correcting sentences/words at the end of a session.

Enabling spell check for another language (Portuguese)

I am trying to figure out how to spell check in another language. Specifically European Portuguese. Is this a browser issue or can it be resolved within the system of my laptop?
Thanks

First you need to install the dictionary, available from https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/3155/
The dictionary will then be available for you, for more details see [[using the spell checker]].

Enabling of Spell Checker for email and text in IC Web Cleint

Hi,
Can someone help me how to enable the Spell Checker option for email and text in IC web Client.
Currently we are working with CRM 4.0.
Thanks in adv....

Hi,
I agree with the previous reply. Building your own spell checker is just a waste of time. Google bar has a pretty nice spell checker with different language support.
Its best to use that.
If there are reasons why you don't want to use the said spell checker then in CRM_IC you will find two view for spell checker. You can add JavaScript or VB Script code to use word functionality and do the spell check. This would be the second best alternative.
Thanks and regards,

TS3276 Spell checker on Mail and Pages not working.

I have lost the capacity to check spelling on all Apple programs. I deleted Mac Keeper as I read this had caused the problem, but still no spell checker. Can anyone assist?

Hey Vic,
If the problem was indeed with MacKeeper, then you might need to reinstall your OS. Assuming you've got a good backup, it should be pretty easy to do—either redownload the software from the Mac App Store and follow the instructions (if you upgraded) or boot into Recovery Mode and do it from there.
If I were you, I'd probably do a little sleuthing first. If you go into System Preferences> Language & Text, does everything seem to be configured properly? Is English the top language under the "Language" tab? Under the "Text" tab, is "Spelling" toggled to "Automatic by Language"? If you misspell a word in Mail and press Command-; (the shortcut for Edit> Spelling and Grammar> Check Document Now), does anything happen?
If everything seems OK, I'd probably just reinstall.

Spell check in Mail and Safari not working

Since I've upgraded to 10.5.1 spell check no longer works in mail. It does not underline any incorrect spellings. Also in Safari 3.0.4, when I fill out forms and make a misspelling, spellcheck will underline the word but when I right click on it I do not get the contextural menu to correct it. The misspelled work just highlights and then the red undeline disappears leaving the incorrect spelling intact. How can I get spell check working correctly?
Thanks,
Pat

This is a fairly old thread. Did the OP's (Patrick) problem go away? Was there a solution?
If you control-click in a new message, is Spelling and Grammar in the pop-up context? Can you select it? If you do, does it find misspelt words? If you deliberately misspell a word, put the insertion point in the middle of it and then control-click, does the pop-up offer a list of alternatives?

Spell Check Text in Spanish in Acrobat Pro 9

I can only spell check in English and I work in various languages. I went to File > Properties > Advanced > Reading, changed it to Spanish
Then Edit > Check Spelling > In Fields editable text, comments then when it opens it does not show Editable Text.
How do I set my text to Editable Text. I have searched and have not found the solution. There are documents that I have created myself. Thanks for the help ...

Figured out the solution: Go to Edit > Preferences > Spelling > Check the languages you wish to use and move them up to the top. Make sure the language you wish to use in a particular document is at the very top since it seems the Adobe is not intuitive. . I guess it will not check multiple language in the same pdf document.

Spanish spell check

Looking for spell check solution with IE8 and apex 4.1

Hello: The most recent solution I find to implement spell check in IE8 and APEX is 2 years old - here: http://mattball.wordpress.com/2010/06/07/apex-spell-checker/
It shows how to integrate Jspell with apex. I will likely try the JSpell Evolution since it gives the little squiggle. Does anyone have success with this or another solution? Does it work within tabular forms?
Thanks, Hawk

Were you able to get JSpell installed? I am stuck in the same boat - I need a spell checker. The documentation is 2+ years old and on an Oracle 10.1.x database.
I am running Oracle 11g on a Linux installation with APEX 4.1
And I had to reinstall the OS on my development machine because when I installed IE Spell as a test, it installed some MALWARE at the same time. So that isn't even an option.
Has anyone tried any other spell checkers now that Oracle has deprecated spell checking in the Rich Text Editor for 4.1? Even Google Toolbar's spell check doesn't work with CKEDitor 3 as it has been implemented with APEX. On a standard CKEditor (outside of APEX), it works great but not within APEX (thanks Oracle!!)
Please advise.

Onscreen font size for "spell check" and "font"

How do I increase the onscreen font size for "spell check" and "font"? I just tried to spell check a document and the font size was so small I can't see what it says. Also, when you click on 'font' to change it, I wish the list of fonts was larger so I could see it clearer. I have pretty good vision so it's not that, it's just the size of the font....it must be at least 6! Thanks for your help.

Hi, Diane. I don't know what sort of display you're using, but it sounds like you have a flat LCD display. At any resolution lower than its maximum, a flat-screen LCD display is always blurry, and the lower the resolution, the blurrier it is. This is because unlike a CRT display, an LCD has a fixed number of physical pixels in it that can't be changed. If you instruct it to "pretend" it has a smaller number of larger pixels by setting it for a lower resolution, each of the "pretend" pixels has to be made up of several real pixels instead of just one, and no pixel can be (for example) half white and half blue: a pixel is an indivisible unit that is always all one color. So the only way the hardware can use several pixels to represent one larger one is to gradate the colors of those pixels as best it can to approximate the intended image, and that inevitably spreads the gradation out — which is exactly what blurring is. This is just an inbuilt property of LCD displays, not a defect that needs to be (or can be) fixed. The solution is to buy a display that works well for you at its highest resolution — which will probably mean a lower-resolution display than you have now.
