Spelling language
My PC is in the UK and naturally set up only for English UK.
I have a number of books that I have got from US sources, and if I check spelling using Edit Book, I get a lot of errors reported where a US spelling is used in the book, but the spell checker reports it as an English(GB) word. I would like to eliminate these reports and check some books using a US dictionary.
In the example I am looking at currently, there is no language defined in the book's (epub) metadata.
In Edit Book preferences, I have set English-US as the preferred Variant for the English language
In the Calibre Help file it says " .... Language information is taken from the books metadata and from lang attributes in the HTML files. ...."
I have searched "All text files for any lang codes, and the only one I can find is on the title page as follows.
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xml:lang="en">
I have also searched for a GB text string and got no hits.
So something is still forcing the spell-checker to identify these words as English (GB).
Can anyone point me in the direction of a possible solution please.
