Hello

I'm using Wordfast Pro 5 1 1 (on an iMac running version 10 12 6), and when I try to use the spellchecker for British English I get the message "Spellchecker is unavailable for language English (United Kingdom)".

Since I started using Wordfast Pro 5 recently I'd only been using US English, and the spellcheck was working fine for that.

Can anyone help?

Thanks.

Then download the GB spellchecker, and restart.

GB English option on Wordfast Pro 5 Nov 24, 2017

Is not an option that comes up for me under general preferences and Hunspell in Wordfast Pro 5.
Where do you find it please?

Right you can go to "Help" in Pro5 and it will offer an update. I've chosen the GB ENG but there's no way of knowing that it is the preference.
