SpellBound: Much Better Spell Checking

Wed, Dec 16, 2009

XTensions

CompuSense’s SpellBound is an XTension for QuarkXPress 4–8 that adds enormous power to XPress’ built-in spell checking. You can open up to five auxiliary dictionaries at the same time, use non-alphabetic characters in entries, use ligatures, and create an exception dictionary to specify the preferred alternative between two or more correctly spelled versions of the same word (color vs. colour).

It also recognizes capitalization errors, lets QuarkXPress ignore correctly-spelled possessives, and much more.

Additional dictionaries are available for these industries: Biochemistry, Geographical, Dental, Technical, Legal, Medical, Pharmaceutical, Wall Street.

SpellBound is available for $249 from The PowerXChange.
