Changing the language as you describe above helps for some settings, but there 
is also a language setting on characters which actually affect the spelling 
tool used for that sequence of characters (you can imagine a doc with mixed 
languages).

To change the language of all of the paragraphs in your document do :
CTRL + A ( this selects all text );
Format -> Character -> Font and change the language.
