Is there a way (or will there be a way) to add a custom spelling dictionary? I'm a medical student and being able to add terms and foreign language support would be very helpful.
Custom Spelling Dictionary

Hi docMD,
Pear Note uses the standard OS X spelling dictionaries. You can see what's installed on your system by going to System Preferences -> Language & Text -> Text and selecting Setup from the Spelling drop-down. It will tell you there how to install additional spelling dictionaries (both .aff and .dic files). You can then turn these on for spell checking in System Preferences, restart Pear Note, and you should be ready to go.
Thanks,

How does this work on the iPad? I've noticed some odd behavior, it seems like if you type a word (made a space after the word) and then attempt to delete backwards and correct it, the autocorrect treats it like a new word. Although I can't think of a real world example right now, this is easy enough to demonstrate. Type word such as "apostrophe" into Pear Note for the iPad. Then follow it with a space or period. Finally, go backspace and delete any part of word apostrophe, then type "teh". Autocorrect will attempt to change it to "the". Is this a bug or intended behavior?

It's a bug, though I'm not sure it's one I can fix without Apple fixing things on their side first. Most apps on iOS use the standard, Apple-provided plain text editor. Pear Note has a custom text editor, which is why it can do true rich text. The interplay between the keyboard, autocorrect, and a custom text editor is complicated and not as mature as I'd like. This means that autocorrect sometimes gets confused.
I'll see what I can do, but I'm afraid I won't be able to fix it. I'd need either Apple to fix autocorrect or have Apple give me more control over autocorrect.
Sorry if this got a bit too technical. Hopefully a future update to iOS will improve this.

I was skeptical about using electronic signatures for legal documents, but after reading about the eSign Act on signnow.com/ask/what-is-the-esign-act, I feel much more comfortable with it.

Automation software can have a variety of focuses, such as a CRM system with document management, schedule monitoring, etc. The Bots at airslate.com/bots/procore may be set up to give and take away recipients' responsibilities.
