for me to be better able to help you
it helps if you say what Operating System you are running abiword on.
(although from your email i would guess you are using Linux).
i would appreciate if you would please try a newer version
0.99.4 was recently released, 0.99.5 has been tagged and binaries should
be available on sourceforge.net very soon if not already.
and v1.0 should be out anytime in the next few weeks.
you must make sure you have exactly the right spellcheck dictionary.
just because abiword knows it is there does not guarantee that it is the
right dictionary.
There are special dictionaries provided on sourceforge as some
distributions do not provide dictionaries suitable for abiword and the
dictionaries are different on x86/Intel/AMD hardware and
Motorola/PowerPC
hardware.
