# How to do spellcheck

Perform spellcheck to find and correct misspellings within the transcript.

```{seealso}
For searching for text within the transcript, see [](findreplace.md).
For searching for closely related steno outlines, see [](stenosearch.md).
For lookup up a dictionary definition for a word/phrase, see [](definitionlookup.md).
For querying various online sources on a word/phrase, see [](onlinelookup.md).
```

The `Spellcheck` page is located in the `Toolbar` dock. 

1. Select the desired dictionary (`en-US` by default) and press search. If there is a mis-spelling, the text is shown in the `detected` box. A list of candidate corrections is also displayed.

2. To not correct and move on to the next mis-spelling, press `Skip`. 

3. To not correct and also ignore all other occurrences, use `Ignore All`. This mis-spelling is remembered for the rest of the session.

4. If a correction is desired, select a choice from the list, and then press `Change`.
