To check for spelling errors behind the scenes, use automatic spelling checking. As you type, the spelling checker checks the text and then marks possible errors with wavy red underlines. To correct an error, right-click the misspelled word, and then click the correction you want on the shortcut menu.

You can check your entire drawing for spelling errors and then confirm each correction. This method is useful if you want to postpone proofreading a drawing until after you finish creating it.

To fix spelling errors without having to confirm each correction, use the AutoCorrect feature. For example, if you type "definitley" and then type a space or punctuation, AutoCorrect replaces it with "definitely." AutoCorrect makes corrections from a built-in list of AutoCorrect entries (but not the spelling checker dictionaries). You can easily add your own AutoCorrect entries or remove unwanted ones.
