Custom Global and Project Dictionaries
In addition to all of the built-in dictionaries that are installed on your computer, you can develop custom dictionaries. You can think of these as supplements to the built-in dictionaries. A custom dictionary is created and modified automatically whenever you perform a spell check and tell Flare that a questionable word is okay and should be added to a dictionary.

Global Dictionary
A global dictionary is a file that contains words and can be used for spell checking by any Flare project you open on your computer. This is a convenient way to ensure that all of your projects are using the same spellings for terms, rather than having each project rely on a different dictionary.
By default, a new global dictionary is stored in your AppData folder, like all of your built-in dictionaries.
However, you can use the Spelling tab of the Options dialog (File > Options) to choose another location for your global dictionary. For example, you might be working with a team of writers and want to make sure you are all using the same spellings for certain terms. By choosing a network directory, your entire team can use the same global dictionary.
Project Dictionary
A project dictionary is unique to a particular project. It is automatically created and added to the Advanced folder in the Project Organizer.
For example, you might choose to use this kind of dictionary if you are a writer with several clients, and each client has unique terms with unusual spellings. By using a project dictionary, you can keep those spellings tied to a certain project.
