Once you have downloaded, installed, configured and licensed Spellproof, you can create content on your Confluence page and manually run Spellproof by clicking on the book shaped iconin your Confluence Editor toolbar.

Spellproof runs through a collection of rules to detect misspelt and misused words, providing suggestions based on the context of the sentence.

The three kinds of suggestions provided by Spellproof are:

• Spelling errors - Denoted by a red underline
• Grammar errors - Denoted by a green underline

• Style errors - Denoted by a yellow underline

Spellproof also provides a 'Suggestions Assistant' as a red circle in the Confluence editor window. It shows the number of outstanding suggestions on a Confluence page.

Clicking on the Suggestions Assistant will automatically take you to the next suggestion. This helps with quick visibility and navigation between errors, especially on lengthy Confluence pages.

• Alternate list of spellings - Select one of these spellings to correct the spelling error
• Add to Dictionary option - Select this option to add the error-ed word to the Dictionary (refer to Configure Dictionaries for Spellproof section to manually add or remove words from the Dictionary)
