removing red lines under words

Ignore them. Whether you can see them or not, will not affect whether whoever is reading your resume can see them or not, as that is an App setting, not a document setting that would carry over to someone else's application.

If you know they are correct it does not matter if Pages underlines them. If you convert the file to PDF or print it out those won't be there. If you send it as a Pages File, or Microsoft Word File its up to the application its opened in to underline the spelling errors it thinks it has, you cannot control it on another person's computer.

select the word with RMB and select Ignore or Learn spelling. If your concerned the red lines will appear once you export and send to someone then export to PDF if the agency allows you to; most do.

The red lines are strictly for your reference, unless you send a pages file to the employer in word, rtf or another text format like a native pages format then the document will appear with whatever settings they have on their end.

Like a thousand before you, the specific numeric version of the Pages application that you are using has been omitted. Please provide that: Pages menu : About Pages.

Let's assume Pages v6.3.1. Have you unchecked the following?

• Pages Preferences : Auto-Correction : Check spelling automatically
• Pages : Edit menu : Spelling and Grammar
  • Check Spelling While Typing
  • Correct Spelling Automatically
• System Preferences : Keyboard : Text

  Correct spelling automatically

As said, you cannot control that.

If you opened the Text file you sent yourself in Pages it will still underline them because that's what Pages does for all formats it supports, but you cannot turn it off for other people's applications.

Export it as a PDF and you'll see no red lines.

If you upload it as a Pages File to the employer website they may appear for them, but again you cannot control that.

Though i would find it strange if an employer were to accept a resume in Pages format.

Thanks! I converted to text and sent it to myself as a test and the lines were there. I have to upload resume to a site, so perhaps the lines just won't be there on their website. I appreciate your time!

That achieved and proved precisely nothing.

You opened it in the Application you created it with which flagged all your spelling/grammatical errors all over again.

Open it in something else or export it as a pdf, to see it as someone else will see it.

Do you have a different language set?

If the words are misspelled, it would be well to correct them before sending out a resume.
