SPELLING AND TYPOS
How to catch mistakes that a spell checker will miss
Spell checkers create a false sense of security. Just because a word exists,
it doesn't mean that you've typed the right word. So when you think that you've
checked a document, mistakes can creep past. Weeding out the remaining mistakes
is an arduous, manual process. But how much of that time could be saved with an
extra layer of automatic checking?
Instead of examining spelling, PerfectIt is an add-in for Microsoft Word that
looks for typos. It finds:
- Common typing mistakes
- Individual words spelled in more than one way
- Numbers in text
PerfectIt focuses on the most embarrassing typos. It is pre-programmed with
the worst typing errors and can be customised to search for even more. You can
