Performing a Spelling Check

To check spelling within your text and mtext objects, issue the SPELL command by choosing Spelling from the Tools menu. When you start the command, AutoCAD prompts you to select the text objects to check. If the SPELL command encounters an unknown word, the Check Spelling dialog box appears, and you must choose to replace the word, ignore the discrepancy, or add the word to your supplemental dictionary. If no errors are found, a message box appears, informing you that the spell check is complete.
