Jeffery completed his cover letter and ran his word processor’s spell check feature. Why is it still important for Jeffery to read through his letter, even after making the spelling corrections?

Answer:

Running a spell check does not always catch all of the errors in a cover letter. Jeffery may have used incorrect words in certain situations, but as long as they were spelled correctly, they wouldn’t have been brought to his attention for correction by the spell check. Proofreading after running a spell check is necessary to catch any additional errors.
