Hi,
I'm trying to use the Spell Check feature in Trados Studio, but it is greyed out.
I have tried both the Microsoft Word and Hunspell spell checkers, and neither of them works.
My project languages in Trados are EN (United Kingdom) → ES (Spanish Modern), and my TM is set to the same language pair. I am also using the DeepL integration.
I have Microsoft 365 Apps for enterprise (Version 2509) installed locally on my Windows 11 computer.
In Word, the proofing languages I have installed are Spanish (Spain) and Spanish (Spain, Traditional Sort). I noticed that Spanish (Modern) does not appear as a variant in Word, so I'm not sure whether this is the reason why the Word spell checker isn’t working in Trados.
I would be happy to use Hunspell if Word is not possible, but this option is also greyed out. Next to the Check Spelling button there is a message: Language not supported. Do I need to install a specific dictionary for Spanish to use Hunspell? On the settings I see that the Default CUSTOM.dic is installed and I see Spanish in the folder.
At this point I'm not sure what I'm missing or how to proceed.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Marta
PS- Using Trados Studio 2024 SR1 - 18.1.3.6657
