Does anyone know how to spell-check files in Japanese?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.

Hi, Mike, thank you for trying to help.
I just got the problem resolved! For some odd reason, InDesign wouldn't recognize typos or make suggestions even after installing and syncing a JN dictionary. After a few retries, it somehow began to work! It's still not working in one of my PCs--can't tell what's causing the difference--but I'm set now.
Thanks again!

I'm guessing you have the CJK version of InDesign installed? Yes?

I had a similar adventure when I recently installed a Basque language custom dictionary. At first it didn't work. I restarted everything and eventually it began to work. I'm still confused about that one, but pleased it began functioning.
