Spell Checker

Avatar

Level 3

Hi,

Is it possible to do a forced spell check in a pdf opened in ADOBE Reader? The form was developed in LC Designer and will be submitted to a Web service. I am looking to do a spell check when the user clicks the submit button. I am not even sure if it is feasible in this scenario. Any pointers on this will be highly appreciated.

Regards,

Nakul

Hi,

As part of your script, you can include the following line:

app.execMenuItem("Spelling:Check Spelling");

If you are in a locale that LC Designer supports you are OK. However if you are in a geographical location that is not supported, then you can force LC to map your spell checker to the nearest/closest locale that is supported. For example, Ireland is not supported, so I have made a once off change to a .js file in the LC folders to make the spell checker to the UK.

There is a very good post on this here (http://blogs.adobe.com/lcdesigner/2008/05/spell_check_locale_mapping.html). As I say if you locale is supported you do not need to do this.

Good luck,

Niall
