Formatting Text
Once you have entered text you can format it by using the flex edit tool bar. The tool bar looks very similar to any word processing program’s. There are icons which can be clicked on to apply certain styles and features.
- Bold - highlight the text and click on the ‘B’ button.
- Italic - highlight the text and click on the ‘I’ button.
- Use the left, center, right and full justify buttons to format text position.
- Use the Bullet button or the Numbering button to make lists.
- Heading - Highlight the text, choose the heading style from the drop down under format.
- Font Size - Highlight the text, choose the font size from the drop down.
- Font Family – Highlight the text, choose the new font from the drop down under Font Family.
- Font Color – Highlight the text, click on the small arrow next to the icon that is an A with a thick bar beneath it. Choose your color from those provided, or click on more colors to get more options.
- To go back or forward a step or two, you can use the curved arrows in the tool bar.
- Start a new paragraph – Press Enter/Return
- To move down one line immediately beneath text – Hold SHIFT + Enter/Return
- To completely remove the custom formatting you have added, highlight the text and click on the icon that looks like a small white eraser.
