Assign a language for text

Photoshop uses language dictionaries to check hyphenation. Language dictionaries are also used to check spelling.
Each dictionary contains hundreds of thousands of words with standard syllable breaks. You can assign a language to
an entire document or apply a language to selected text.

Examples of hyphenation for different languages
A. “Cactophiles” in English USA B. “Cactophiles” in English UK C. “Cactophiles” in French

To enter text using a specific language dictionary, choose the dictionary from the pop-up menu in the bottom left

To change the dictionary of existing text, select the text and choose the dictionary from the pop-up menu in the
bottom left corner of the Character panel.

In the Character panel, choose the appropriate dictionary from the pop-up menu in the bottom left corner of the

Note: If you select text with multiple languages or if the type layer has multiple languages, the pop-up menu in the
Character panel will be dimmed and it will display the word “Multiple.”
