is it possible to create a list of grammatical / spelling problems in a document?

[b143]

I'm working on a book, and want to run the supplied document through indesigns spellchecker, but create a list with problems and the associated page numbers to give to the author rather than making them myself. Is this possible?

Hi @b143,

I completely understand your need to provide a detailed list of grammatical and spelling issues to the author—it’s such a thoughtful approach to ensure the document is polished without manually correcting everything yourself. Unfortunately, InDesign’s current spell-check and grammar tools don’t directly allow exporting a list of errors along with their page numbers.

Your need highlights a valuable feature that could greatly benefit many InDesign users. If you’re open to it, I’d encourage you to submit a feature request on Adobe’s UserVoice platform here. Sharing your feedback helps our team prioritize new features based on user needs.

If you have any questions or need further assistance with these steps, please feel free to reach out. We’re here to help!

Best,

I found a script that does it, but it doesn't list the page numbers.
