proofing language wont change
On the review bar I clicked "language" and set the default language to English (US).
I then opened a file clicked "review" Language" and changed the language to English (US) When I click "Spelling and Grammar" It says "English (UK). I tried this several times to be sure that I did not fat finger the language selection. Any hints or suggestions? I have bee successful at changing other files to English (US). |

Note that setting the defaults applies to documents you create later.
For an existing document, sometimes you have to resort to selecting all text (Ctrl+A) and applying language directly to text. Text in headers and footers aren't affected by select all, as you probably know; it must be dealt with separately.

Thank you. That worked.
Another thing that works is to open the file in WordPerfect and replace all [Lang] codes. |
