Adding words to a dictionary
You can add to the list of words (the dictionary) that are recognized when spell-checking 
text in note comments and form fields. Adding names and company terminology can 
reduce the number of words that are flagged during a spell check. You can also exclude 
words from being considered. For example, if you want to use an alternate spelling for a 
common word like "bicycle," add it to the list of excluded words so that it is flagged 
during a spell check. Adobe Reader can maintain a separate set of added and excluded 
words for each installed language.
To add words to a dictionary:
1.  Do one of the following:
●     
During a spell check, if an unrecognized word appears in the Check Spelling dialog box, 
click Add to add it to the dictionary. The word is added to the language dictionary selected 
from the Add To menu.
●     
Choose Edit > Spell Checking > Edit Dictionary. Type the word you want to add in the 
Entry box, and then click Add. When you're finished adding words, click Done. 
2.  To remove a word from the list, select the word in the Edit Custom Dictionary dialog box, 
and then click Delete.
To exclude words from being considered during a spell check.
1.  Choose Edit > Spell Checking > Edit Dictionary. 
2.  Select Excluded Words from the menu in the dialog box.
