working with spellcheck and dictionary in JS

ANSWERED

I have set up a basic spell check/commenting script using online examples. I'm getting an enormous number of false positives for technical terms, and have compiled a list of these words in a txt file.  I'd like to use JS to either (a) add these words to the user-specific .clam files or (b) create a separate custom dictionary file and force Acrobat to use it alongside the basic dictionary, at least when it is running my spell-check JS.  It seems the Acro 7 Pro interface only supports adding a word at a time - I cannot find the way to add whole dictionaries - hence the desire to do this via JS.   I have to add these 1500+ words not just on my machine but for some coworkers, so a ones-y approach is OOTQ.

Can anyone give me a hand?

Thanks,

John

ACCEPTED ANSWER

Take a look at the "Spell" object in Acrobat JavaScript. It has funcitons for creating and using custom dictionaries.

Re: working with spellcheck and dictionary in JS

I am using Acrobat Professional 8 and I have the same problem and could not understand how to use Spell object in Java. Where should I look for it and does it need Java programming knowledge?

Thanks
