Right. I think you or someone has mentioned that on this list before,
but I confess that I've been neglecting to do that in files I edit. My
Word files always have the language set to Canadian English to take
advantage of spellcheck using the Canadian dictionary in Word. I'll have
to pay closer attention to how I set the language when those get
exported into PDF.
