Correct spelling errors automatically

Know how to correct spelling errors automatically in FrameMaker.

You can have FrameMaker automatically correct future occurrences of a misspelled word or typing error. FrameMaker keeps track of the errors to correct automatically until you exit or until you instruct FrameMaker to stop making the corrections.

Before changing a particular misspelling or typing error automatically, verify the changes to make. If you use the Automatic Correction option when correcting a repeated word, FrameMaker corrects every repeated word even though some are correct (such as had had). Similarly, if thst is a misspelling of both test and that, you don’t want to change it automatically to either word.

  1. Choose Edit > Spelling Checker and click Start Checking.

  2. When FrameMaker questions a word or typing error, select and click Correct.
