Spellchecker which ignores Upper Case Words

By "such words" to you mean people's names and the name of counties, cities, etc.? I need a spell checker to ignore any word in Uppercase.

2) Export/save/convert to LO Writer (perhaps via docx or copy/paste. Only edit odt and an extra Save As in docx). It can ignore capitals and also have any number of custom dictionaries. You can also easily edit LO Writer and MS Word dictionaries with a text editor aand easily edit the dictionary file header to copy LO Writer dictionary to Word or vice versa.
This seems too complicated for my pea sized brain.
My ePub production is very limited. I am on my second one and do not see a third in sight.
Thanks,

Only use Sigil or Calibre to edit html and /or CSS, not to edit content.
Sigil has a docx plug-in, but you seem to have to make your own CSS map.
Calibre maps imported paragraph styles 1:1 from docx perfectly as long as the LibreOffice Writer odt source styles have inhert="none" on all styles. Then you can edit epub further in Sigil if you prefer it
