Hi.
I have a custom dictionary that I want Framemaker to use. I have inserted a path to it in Maker.ini, but FrameMaker does not seem to get it. When I try to get Spelling Checker to Import Personal Dictionary, Framemaker just crashes.

    Hi,

    How did you create this dictionary?

    When this dictionary was not created properly, FrameMaker could crash. Own experience.

    Best regards, Winfried
