I don't think this is great idea. There will always be words the spell checker will identify as misspelled, while they aren't (think about foreign words). If a spellchecker would be part of the prefilght verifier, the latter wouldn't stop popping up without any reason. > > The use of a spellchecker should not mislead users and make them think a > piece of software could replace a proofreader... ;) To me, a proper > workflow means the texts are read, revised and proofread before they are > put in the layout.
