TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
While manually reviewing a Frame 7.0 document, I came upon a seriously
spelling-challenged intro page at the start of a 40-page chapter
document. It contained three or four blatant misspellings. I noted it
for later correction, and came back to it later to run the spell
checker. SPELL CHECK JUST IGNORES THE PAGE. For some reason, despite
several blatant spelling errors, Frame refuses to flag or correct
spelling errors on this page only. The cursor just sits there, even if
I highlight an offending word.
Has anyone ever dealt with this problem before? Apparently the original
writer assumed, as I have, that FrameMaker's spell checker is thorough
and robust.
Thank you,
