1. Create the dictionary and save it in the UserDictionaries folder, for example, C:\Program Files\RealLegal E-Transcript 7.0\UserDictionaries.    

2. Click the transcript you want to edit.

3. Click the Edit E-Transcript button (). The E-Transcript Editor opens.

4. Click the Tools menu, click Options, and then click the Spelling tab.

5. Click the Custom Dictionaries button.

6. Click the Add button.

7. At the bottom of the dialog box, click the Files of type drop-down list to select the type of dictionary (TXT, TLX, or DIC) you want to import.  

8. Click the dictionary file name and then click the Open button.

9. Click the OK button to close the Custom Dictionaries dialog box.
