To export your exceptions list:
- Launch PageMaker’s Dictionary Editor, which is located in the Adobe PageMaker 7\Extras\Typography folder (Adobe\PageMaker 7.0\Dictionary Editor in Windows).
- Choose File > Open and navigate to the Adobe PageMaker 7.0\RSRC\Linguists\Proximity\US English folder (Adobe\PageMaker 7.0\RSRC\LINGUIST\PRX\USENGLSH folder in Windows).
- Select the AldUsn.udc file (or a custom user dictionary that contains the entries you want to transfer) and click OK.
- Choose File > Export and, in the resulting dialog box, enter a filename with a .txt extension. (This is done for you in Windows.)
- Click OK to save the dictionary as a text file in the US English folder.
- Launch InDesign and create a new document.
- Choose File > Place, locate the user dictionary text file you just created in the US English folder, and then click Open.
- Click the loaded icon on the page to place the text.
- Select the Type tool and click an insertion point in the text.
- Choose Edit > Spelling > Check Spelling (Edit > Check Spelling in versions 2/CS) and click Start in the Check Spelling dialog box. As InDesign comes across unfamiliar words in the text file, click Add.
- Click Ignore in the Check Spelling dialog box to continue to the next exception in the list.
- Click Done when you’ve finished adding all the exceptions to the InDesign user dictionary to close the Check Spelling dialog box.
