I was able to use spelling check in the current free version. Did you try a while age?

The free version of Jarte does not allow spellcheck. I got a popup box recommending me to the paid version of Jarte in order to use that function. That popup ended my 60 seconds of experimentation with Jarte!




    I tried Jarte, but I was unable to get the spellcheck to work.
     I'm using
    Jaws.
    What are you using, Mike?  Did you do anything special to get
    spellcheck?

        I have picked up the book to proofread it. From just first
        glance, it
        looks
        pretty good. It doesn't look like it should take very long to
        do. I will
        see
        if I like it as well as you did.

        Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Earthworks and Jarte

        At last I have submitted Earthworks, the book I used as a test
        on using
        Jarte for bookshare.  So far, at least the submission tools
        accepted it
        and they counted the correct number of page breaks.

        I chose it only because it was the first relatively short book
        (128
        pages) that I came across and I thought I could do it in less
        than a
        week.  Well, I did, I finished the spelling check late on last
        Sunday
        night.  But I was practically nodding off at the computer so I
        thought
        I'd just pop it in on Monday.  But, then one of my cats got
        sick and
        between cleaning up after he throws up, taking him to the vet,
        etc, etc,
        etc.  Then, having problems at work, then I don't know what
        all else,
        now it is Thursday, but I did finally get it in.

        I would like someone to check it out to find out if there are any
        "gotchas" as a result of using Jarte.  I should have picked a
        book that
        was more attention grabbing so it would be easy to attract
        someone to
        proof it.  I didn't read through the whole book, but what I
        did read I
        found to be what I consider typical of other books by Brian
        Aldiss: some
        parts are truly fascinating, others are really depressing.  I
        have to
        say, I don't think I've seen another book that so directly
        tackles the
        problem that if we overpopulate the earth to the extent that
        too many
        people really is the root of all our problems, there are
        absolutely no
        morally righteous solutions.  Yet, if I want my children (or
        anyone's
        children) to have a better life, one of those repugnant
        solutions is the
        only solution possible.

        So now that I have given that description of the book, no one
        will ever
        proof it.

        Ah well, I wish using Jarte had been more successful, too.
