Spell-checking text in forms
You can spell-check the text you typed in form fields. However, you cannot check the
spelling of text in the underlying Adobe PDF document. (To do that, use the source
application to spell-check the document before you create the PDF document.)
Unrecognized words appear underlined after you type them. You can edit these words in
context, or you can open the Check Spelling dialog box.
To change a single misspelled word:
Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (Mac OS) the word in the form field, and then
choose the correct word from the list of alternatives.
To spell-check text in forms:
1. Do one of the following to open the Check Spelling dialog box:
In Reader, choose Edit > Check Spelling > In Comments and Form Fields.
In a web browser or in Reader, click the Spell Check Comments And Form Fields
button in the Edit toolbar.
2. Click Start to begin the spell check.
When a word that may be misspelled is found, it appears under Word Not Found.
Suggested corrections appear under Suggestions.
3. Do one of the following. The next unrecognized word (if any) is highlighted. Repeat this
step until the Restart button appears.
Edit the unrecognized word in the Word Not Found box. To undo your change, click
Undo Edit. To accept your change, click Change.
Double-click a word from the Suggestions box to select a correction, or select the word,
and click Change to replace the unrecognized word. Click Change All to replace every
instance of the unrecognized word with the selected suggestion.
Click Ignore if you don't want to change that instance of the word, or click Ignore All to
ignore every instance of the word.
Click Add if you want to add the word to your personal dictionary.
4. Click Done when you are finished with the spell check.
