On the Language tab in the dialog box of the ribbon command File | Options 
, you can make settings for PlanMaker's spell check and hyphenation:
Language
Here, you can select the language to be used for the spell check and hyphenation. To do so, open the dropdown list and select the desired language from the available options.
Note: Please note that there are two entries in this list for German:
▪"German (Germany)" stands for the new spelling (according to the 1996 German spelling reform in its last revision in 2006).
▪"German (Germany, old)", on the other hand, stands for the old spelling.
The same applies to "German (Austria)" and "German (Switzerland)".
Spell check
Here, you can make the following settings for the spell-check:
▪Check spelling as you type
| If you enable this option, PlanMaker will check the spelling of text as you type. As soon as you make a mistake, a dialog box will appear to facilitate a correction. For more information, see Checking the spelling as you type. |
| Note: If this option is disabled, you don't have to do without a spell check – you can always start it manually with the ribbon command Review | Spell check. For more information, see Manual spell check. |
▪Beep on errors
| This option determines whether PlanMaker should beep when Check spelling as you type encounters an unknown word. |
▪Ignore words that start with a number
| If you enable this option, the spell check ignores all words that start with a number (for example, "1980s"). |
▪Manage dictionaries
FreeOffice: SoftMaker FreeOffice does not have the premium SoftMaker dictionaries normally included in SoftMaker Office. Only Hunspell dictionaries can be used here.
| As an alternative to its own dictionaries, SoftMaker Office also supports the use of Hunspell dictionaries. They are available free of charge for installation. Most of them were created by private users or non-profit organizations. |
| The Manage dictionaries button allows you to install dictionaries and also specify which of these dictionaries should be used for a language. For more information, see Installing dictionaries. |
