Hi,

By default Word marks mis-spelled words by underlining them with tiny
red lines. This line might be difficult to recognize for visually
impaired people.

How can I change this 'red line' to something else, like red background...?

Thanks for comments on this

regards

I'm afraid this is one issue where compromise wins - something more stark
would be a severe imposition on those who *don't* need it and there is no
built-in "toggle" for the purpose of variable effects.

Someone may be able to offer a programmatic solution, but use of the
standard spell checker is the best I can come up with - combined, perhaps,
with other accessibility features of Windows.

The wavy underlines will be proportionally larger if the Zoom ratio is
increased (which would be indicated for visually impaired users). For
color-blind users, the colors can be changed from red and green; see
