Spell Check in form

Hi,

I am creating fillable forms using Adobe Acrobat 8 Pro. When the user chooses to submit, is there a way I can programmatically launch the Adobe Reader spell checker? Or even have the SUBMIT button trigger the spell check first?

And if this is possible, can I also start the spell check process?

Thanks

Check out the "spell" object in the the Acrobat JavaScript reference. Based on the return value of the "check" method, you could decide to go ahead with the form submission using the submitForm JavaScript method.
