I've been using allot of the ignore all feature, I haven't had to change anything really as of yet, but I only got to page 28 and was getting frustrated. I'll go through and tell it to ignore capitalization. Thank you

Hi Candice, You can't change the spellings, but you can tell your spell checkerto ignore all occurrences of each made-up word or name as it comes up. Youcan also tell the spell checker to ignore capitalized words which mightshrink the number of misspelled words by a whole lot. That's generally whatI do before reading. Ignoring capitalized words does make the number of improperly spelled words a lot smaller. But to answer your question, you can't change spellings unless they scanned incorrectly. If they did scanincorrectly, then you can use the "replace all" feature in the spell checkerdialogue to fix things globally. Have you tried any of this stuff? It might help and reduce your frustration a lot! If you need help using the spell checker's many possible helpful features, just tell us what program you're using and I'm sure you'll have lots of help here! Good luck!

My question is if it's scanned in would it not ruin the author's intent by changing most spellings? For a 500 page science fiction book, am I spitting in to the wind?
