Formatting text

In the Show Work window, you can apply styles and formatting to your text:

The text formatting tools that let you apply bold, italic, text colors, paragraph alignment, and so on

To format your text:

Highlight the text you want to format.
Click one of the format buttons to apply the format.

The text formatting buttons work in the same way as similar buttons in applications such as Microsoft Word. Move your mouse over a button to get a tooltip that shows you what the button does.

The Format menu offers the same options as the formatting buttons. In addition, you can:

Select Font to open the Font window, where you can apply several formatting settings at once.
On the Font tab, you can change the typeface and specify its color, background color, and style. On the Layout tab, you can control the spacing between characters and the position of the text on the page.
Select Style to specify font style (for example, bold or all capital letters).
Select Size to adjust text size.
Select the amount of space between lines.
Select a background color for an entire paragraph.
