Auto Spell Check (red squiggly line like InDesign, Microsoft and other products)
Illustrator REALLY needs to have a feature (that you can turn on or off) for spell check to have the red squiggly line underneath mis-spelled words, like what InDesign, Microsoft, and many other programs have.
I am happy to share that ‘Auto spell-check’ feature has been shipped in the latest version of Illustrator. Here is how to enable/disable it in the latest release : https://helpx.adobe.com/in/illustrator/using/whats-new/2020.html#spellcheck

Yes, please add this feature!

I agree. AI needs to have the option to run spell check automatically.

Yes Dynamic Spell Check should be a standard feature of any program like Illustrator. We have been needing this for years. Thanks in advance :)

It is really very necessary to add auto spelling option while typing. If some words being typed error, we sometimes forget to replace that word. Or it should add underline with red line while tying wrong word.

Hi
I certainly feel the dynamic spell check will be of value as this would help the creative professionals to focus more on the creatives.
Thanks for considering.

The manual user having to do spellcheck within the software for me is not good enough.
I wanted to know if there was a way that you guys can think about creating a plugin with all Adobe software to flag grammar and spelling errors?
For example, I downloaded grammary's plugin for safari and I love it. Though, their app for Mac does not support Adobe software.

Certain type I would like to skip spellcheck on. e.g.: nutrition facts, lorem ipsum type, abbreviations, lists). Can we please get a [No Language] option as in InDesign.

This "Dynamic Spelling" feature for Illustrator should ideally work like Illustrator's "Show Hidden Characters" feature so the user can instantly see what words are misspelled words without affecting the artwork's aesthetics. The user can turn on and off using a hotkey or clicking it on the menu option.

However, please have the red squiggly 'dynamic' spell check off by default. Its bad for aesthetics.

Adding my vote to this. We need a realtime/dynamic spell check in illustrator.

Every update since 1995 the first thing I do is go to spell check to see if it's been updated, it's so antiquated, pathetic... get it sorted.

this would be an amazing feature, and have wanted it for years

Hello All,
There is an option to Check Spelling (in Edit menu). But, from what I understand, this request is about enabling a "dynamic" spell check.We will be reviewing the request shortly.
Thanks,

A shared dictionary would be useful as Ps and Id already have spell check...

In InDesign this is called "Dynamic Spelling." Under preferences/spelling there is a check box titled "Enable Dynamic Spelling."
I have requested this feature be added to Illustrator as well.
