Spellchecker and em dash

  • February 23, 2012

It seems odd that with Frame you can create an em dash (Alt+0151), but the spellchecker flags all words with an emdash (and no space between, which is the typographically correct way) as errors. Is there any way to make the spellchecker ignore words em dashes (or word pairs with an em dash) in between?

    Bill,

    Have you set the Spell Checker Options to explicitly ignore the em-dash in words?

    Haven't tried it, but once again (Arnis), it looks like you've answered by question. Thanks.
