Spell check comments and forms in English and Spanish

New Here ,
Apr 19, 2024 Apr 19, 2024

Hi community!! Sometimes I add comments to PDF documents or fill forms in English and sometimes in Spanish. Is there some way to make Adobe Acrobat to use both languages to spell check comments and forms? 

 

I thought the Spelling preferences will allow me to add different dictionaries, but that's not the case, as shown at this screen capture:

Thanks in advance.

It is possible, but you need to have the Spanish dictionaries installed... If you did, your selection window will look like this:

Thanks try67!! I started searching how to install Spanish dictionary and I found this page at the Adobe website: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/font-pack-spelling-dictionary-64-bit-windows.html. I using latest Adobe Acrobat 2024.x but the 2023.x font pack and spelling dictionary worked fine. 

Now, I see a more complete list of languages to choose for comments and forms spelling:

I do not know if, at Adobe, they are aware that sporadically (and quite often in my situation!), users have multi-language documents. If seen a similar problem with OCR.
