Spell Checking Foreign-Language Text

Besides spell checking English text, you can spell check text in other languages. Versions of Office 2010 available in North America come with an English, French, and Spanish dictionary for spell checking purposes. To spell check text in a language apart from English, French, or Spanish, download and install its dictionary starting at this web page: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/language/.
