Spellcheck oddness in FM8

Thu Jan 26 09:32:12 PST 2012

Thanks to everyone who’s answered so far. The language setting is set to US
English in both Paragraph and Character Properties. I tried “Mark all
paragraphs for re-checking” with no improvement. I restarted FM, and the
results were the same. I’m frustrated at the “Learning” feature now. If I
search in user.dct or site.dct for just “j” (which is one of the characters
in the nonsense string), I still find nothing that matches it. On the other
hand, if I highlight the whole string and click Unlearn, then it’s found.
Where are “learned” terms stored if not in those two *.dct files?

Do you get the same results after restarting FrameMaker? When we were on
FM7, after a long session of multiple spell checks and search and replace
operations, FM would suddenly stop finding misspelled words or the object of
a search. It was like some kind of buffer filled up. When I restarted FM all
would be fine.

Good morning,

Frame 8.0p277

Vista Business SP2 (although that doesn’t apply here)

When stuck for text in a particular spot, I occasionally insert nonsense
text as a placeholder. When I run spellcheck, it finds the nonsense and I
finish the section. Yesterday, that tactic failed me. Spellcheck failed to
find this:

alkasdjf;aidf;andslkfja;oij

What??

The options for Spellcheck don’t seem to yield any clues (screen shot, those
with text-only email):

That string is also not in user.dct. 

Thanks in advance,

Lea
