• Ignore words beginning with certain prefixes: Asutype will not correct words beginning with any prefix in this exceptions list.
• Ignore words ending with certain postfixes: Asutype will not correct words ending with any postfix in this exceptions list.

The Plain Text File for Import / Export

A plain text file that Asutype imports/exports words from/to is a plain ANSI or UNICODE text file (e.g. no formatting information such as bold, italic, tables, images etc. - you can use NotePad to create a plain text file) with each word in a single line. Lines starting with a semicolon (;) are comment lines. Blank lines and comment lines will be ignored when importing. For example:

; start example
; -------------------
; Following are a few entries of a plain text file
; Each entry in a single line
; Lines starting with a semicolon are comment lines
; Blank lines and comment lines will be ignored when importing
 
abc.
mr.
