Please forgive my ignorance. This is a request. Is it possible to add dictionaries in other languages to PageEdit?
Thank you,

It is possible to use a Google Chromium / Qt tool to process a Hunspell dictionary to the required binary format. So if a Hunspell dictionary exists for your target language, then you could manually convert it add the binary file beside the other dictionaries.

The Qt program is called:

qwebengine_convert_dict

and it converts hunspell dictionaries to .bdic formats.

Hope this helps.

Kevin,
Thank you so much. This suggestion helps a lot, as I have done the same for Adobe Indesign.
