This can be done with styles in the Styles and Formating window.
You create one paragraph style for British English and another one
for American English.
To do this, use the F11 key to open the Styles and Formating
window. Make sure the Paragraph Styles icon is selected. (The list
below it will includes Heading, Heading 1, etc.) Right click Default
and select Modify from the context menu. Click the Font tab, and
select English(UK) as the Language from the drop down list. Click the
Organizer tab, and enter British English as the name of the new
style. Set the next style as British English. Click OK. Repeat this
process for your American English style. (Under the font tab, select
English(USA) as the Language. The next style in this case should be
American English.)
Highlight each article and select the appropriate paragraph style
for the type of English used in that article. Spell checking should
then work as you want.
This didn't work. I created a "British English" style as you said, but
words like "behaviour" are still squiggly-red-underlined, and although
the style properties show up as:
Contains:
Western text (English (UK))
in the Organizer tab, when I do Tools -> Spellcheck, the Dictionary
still shows up as "English (USA)" in the popup menu; spellcheck
apparently ignores the language property in the style.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks,
Kirsten
