Hi Eric, You need to install the dictionary "File" -> "Wizard" -> "Installa Dictionary", then make sure that it is active Tools -> Options -> "Language Settings" and finally change the language used for your paragraph/document by selecting the appropriate text and then "Format" -> Characters -> Font and change the language.
