Spot 5.1 Adopts "Novo Acordo Ortográfico" Spell Check Rules

Love it or hate it, the Novo Acordo Ortográfico is here to stay. With this in mind, Spot Software has teamed up with Priberam Informática, S.A. to include their FLiP 8 spell checker in Spot 5.1. Our Portuguese users can now spell check subtitle files according to the new rules without the need for Microsoft Office to be installed on their system.

Spot Awarded First Screen Subtitling PAC Licence

Spot Software is pleased to announce it has reached a formal agreement with Screen Subtitling Systems licensing it to create and issue compliant PAC files, making Spot 5.1 the first subtitle preparation system on the market to undergo PAC testing and compliance certification by Screen.

Originated by Screen Subtitling, PAC is one of the most commonly recognised subtitle file formats for professional, high-end use.

Receiving the PAC licence from Screen has been a positive step in the on-going development of our Spot Subtitling System and has worked in perfectly with the launch of version 5.1.
