Hi. I just purchased the spelling/grammar add-on... And it says on the add-on preferences tab that it has been added, but how do I turn it on? I thought it might be related to the keyword highlight drawer, but didn't see it there. I made some spelling errors and didn't see any spellcheck visuals in my Marked preview. I'm probably missing something obvious... Thanks for any help!

    Look under the gear menu on the preview, in the proofreading submenu.
    You can also use the standard ⌘; to toggle it on and off.

    Hi there,

    I've had a look there also and it's not clear to me how the spell checking and grammar checks work. I can't see the phrase spell or check, and when I put deliberate spelling mistakes in my document they aren't highlighted in any way. When I do find it, is there are way of setting it to UK English? Thanks - Nigel

    You turn spellcheck on for each document, with the shortcut ⌘; (or
    from the menu). It will remain on while the document is open or until
    it's toggled off.

    The UK English issue is one I'm working on, it currently seems to ignore
    system settings for english-language machines, and assumes it's US
    English.
