[TX Spell .NET](https://www.textcontrol.com/product/tx-spell-dotnet-winforms/) comes with a core assembly and separate assemblies for the Win32 platforms Windows Forms and WPF. When using TX Spell .NET with the non-UI version of TX Text Control [ServerTextControl](https://docs.textcontrol.com/textcontrol/asp-dotnet/ref.txtextcontrol.servertextcontrol.class.htm), the core class [TXTextControl.Proofing.TXSpell](https://docs.textcontrol.com/spell/windows-forms/ref.txtextcontrol.proofing.txspell.class.htm) needs to be used.

In your project, add a reference to *TXSpell.dll* and add the following entries to your *licenses.licx* file:

```
TXTextControl.ServerTextControl, TXTextControl.Server, Version=23.0.800.500, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=6b83fe9a75cfb638
TXTextControl.Proofing.TXSpell, TXSpell, Version=5.0.400.500, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=6b83fe9a75cfb638
```

Now, you can create a new instance of the *TXSpell* class and pass this to the [SpellChecker](https://docs.textcontrol.com/textcontrol/asp-dotnet/ref.txtextcontrol.servertextcontrol.spellchecker.property.htm) property of *ServerTextControl*:

```
TXTextControl.Proofing.TXSpell spell = new TXTextControl.Proofing.TXSpell();
spell.Create();

using (TXTextControl.ServerTextControl tx = new TXTextControl.ServerTextControl())
{
    tx.Create();
    tx.SpellChecker = spell;
    tx.IsHyphenationEnabled = true;

    // your code here
}
```

In the above code, hyphenation is activated, so that the created documents of *ServerTextControl* have the same output as the UI versions of TX Text Control where hyphenation is activated.
