Check and correct spelling
When you check the spelling in a document, Photoshop questions any words that aren’t in its dictionary. If a
questioned word is spelled correctly, you can confirm its spelling by adding the word to the dictionary. If a
questioned word is misspelled, you can correct it.
1 If necessary, in the Character palette, choose a language from the pop-up menu at the bottom of the palette. This
is the dictionary Photoshop uses to check spelling.
2 (Optional) Show or unlock type layers. The Check Spelling command does not check spelling in hidden or locked
layers.
3 Do one of the following:
• Select a type layer.
• To check specific text, select the text.
• To check a word, place the insertion point in the word. If you selected a type layer and want to check the spelling
of only that layer, deselect Check All Layers.
4 Choose Edit > Check Spelling.
5 As Photoshop finds unfamiliar words and other possible errors, click one of the following:
Ignore Continues the spelling check without changing the text.
Ignore All Ignores the questioned word during the rest of the spelling check.
Change Corrects a misspelling. Make sure that the correctly spelled word is in the Change To text box and click
Change. If the suggested word is not the word you want, select a different word in the Suggestions text box or enter
the correct word in the Change To text box.
Change All Corrects all instances of the misspelling in the document. Make sure the correctly spelled word is in the
Change To text box.
Add Stores the unrecognized word in the dictionary, so that subsequent occurrences are not flagged as misspellings.
