Spell check finds typos and spelling mistakes in your draft. It doesn’t change sentence structure; it helps clean up basic language errors first.

​
How do I run it?

Click the spell check button in the document header. The suggestions panel opens on the right. Checking runs on the whole document.

​
What you see

When you run spell check, the right panel shows:

​
1. List of suggestions

  • Incorrect form
  • Suggested replacement
You can act on each item separately. Examples:
  • “its” → “it’s”
  • “teh” → “the”

​
2. Apply one by one

Click a suggestion to apply it in the document. You choose what to change.

​
3. Apply all

Use the Apply all button to fix that type of error in one go. Useful for repeated spacing or spelling issues.

​
4. Save changes

When you’re done, click Save changes so they’re stored. Until you save, changes are not final.

​
When to use it

Spell check is most useful:
  • Right after the first full draft
  • Before running AI review
  • In the final pass before submission
Fixing basic errors first makes later revision easier.

​
How to use it

  • In early drafts, prefer applying suggestions one by one.
  • Right before submission, “Apply all” can speed things up.
  • Combine with word replace to keep wording consistent.

​
What to watch

Spell check follows standard spelling and spacing.
  • Deliberate colloquial style
  • Character-specific speech
  • Dialect
are worth checking before you accept a change.

​
Summary

Spell check is the first step for cleaner copy.
  • It finds errors automatically
  • You can fix one or many
  • You can apply in bulk
  • Changes are saved when you confirm
Do this before big structural edits.
