Dear Robert,<br>
<br>
you probably need to download/install some dictionaries. Hopefully
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/TeXworks/texworks/wiki/SpellingDictionaries">https://github.com/TeXworks/texworks/wiki/SpellingDictionaries</a> will
help (although some paths may be different for your MiKTeX version).<br>
<br>
HTH,<br>

<p>Hi - does anyone know how to get an English spell-checker
running in the tex works editor. I had an old version of tex
works as part of an old miktex installation where it had
spell-check (very useful!) but in the latest miktex I have
downloaded the tex works editor does not have a spell
checker. When you go to “spelling” in the Edit drop-down it
says “none” with no option available to choose one. In
“preferences” under “spell-check language” again it has “None”
with no alternative option to choose.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Thanks very much in advance for any help!<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Best wishes, <o:p></o:p></p>
