If you click on Add during the spell check, FlexiPDF "learns" the word by adding it to the user dictionary. User dictionaries are normal text files.
If you inadvertently add a word, you can edit the user dictionary using a text editor such as Notepad. You can also use a text editor to add new words to the user dictionary, for example, words that you have already added to the spell check of your Office suite.
Storage location of user dictionaries
The user dictionary files for all languages are created in the same folder. They are created for a language the first time you add a word to the spell check.
| Storage location on Windows Vista, 7, 8 and 10: |
| C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\Aspell\personal |
| or |
| C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Aspell\personal |
User dictionary format
The *.pws dictionary files are simple word lists, with each word on its own line. Example:
personal_ws-1.1 es 7
Adstract
Technology
SoftMaker
Ltd
Bushnell
Norwich
Guy
The number at the end of the first line represents the number of words in the list. It is preceded by the language code, which is 'es' for Spanish in this case.
Changes to the user dictionary will only take effect when you restart FlexiPDF.
