Spell check anyone?

My current job requires editing and updating of a manual. During my review, I've found spelling errors in the sections that were previously approved. When I made note of them to my supervisor, these errors were brushed off as "not important."

Being dyslexic I've had to work VERY hard at learning how to spell. So it's a huge Pet Peeve when someone brushes off negligence on spelling as "not important" especially since we are talking about a manual that is already being used by the public for the approved sections.

Did these people not use Spell-Check on their documents? If not, why not?

The red, wavy lines are so obvious!! Tells you right there, oopsie, got an error. Please fix.

Pet Peeve: People who can spell, but don't bother. Or people who are too lazy to use features built into programs to make life easier.
