Tip
Pressing the
Control
key along with the
Shift
key while creating
a selection is useful to speed up the process. This combination
highlights the text word by word instead of character by
character. To speed up the selection even further, you can
combine the
Shift
key with the
Home
key or the
End
key to
extend the selection up to the start or end of the line in which
the cursor is positioned, respectively.
Formatting characters
To view the character formatting options, select Format > Character
or click the Character button on the Text Formatting toolbar. (If a
toolbar with the text icon is not visible, choose View > Toolbars >
Text Formatting.) The Character dialog box appears.
Font page
Use the
Font
page, shown in Figure 35, to select the desired font type,
its base attributes (Italic, Bold, etc.) as well as the size. A sample of the
font is displayed in the lower part of the dialog box. You can also
specify the language of this style.
