If Microsoft's Word 97 or higher is present, you may benefit from its many functions - Spell checking, Search&Replace etc - without even leaving the subtitling program.

 

a) Click the Word icon on the icon bar. Sub Machine will run MS Word within the viewport without shutting down. Several icons will be shown, depending on your own configuration of MS Word.

 

b) The work file will be transformed into a Word document in the edit window, allowing you to make changes using Word.

 

c) To leave Word Mode click the Word icon once more and wait for the system to unload MS Word again. This may take a few moments.

 

d) The changes you may have made are now part of your work file.
