Enhancing Text You can use fonts, or typefaces, to enhance the appearance of text in your documents. You can also apply text enhancements such as bold, italic, and underline. If you change your mind about specific text formatting you have applied or removed, or if you want to repeat the last formatting action you performed, you can use the Undo, Redo, or Repeat option.

Changing the Font Face or Point Size of Text Fonts determine the style and size of text. A font is expressed in terms of its name, or font face, and its point size. Common fonts include Courier, Times Roman, and Arial. The larger a font’s point size, the larger the font. For example, the text on this page is 12 point, and the title at the top of the page is 16 point. Until another font for text is defined, document text is formatted with Word’s default font attributes. You can apply a different font to text that is about to be entered or to text that already exists. To choose a font, you can use the Font dialog box, illustrated in Figure 2-2, or the Font group on the Home ribbon tab. The Font group enables you to use drop-down lists to change the font face or size quickly. Also, at the bottom right corner of the Font group, you will see the Font Dialog Box Launcher (circled Green in Figure 2-1).

Using Undo and Redo Word’s Undo feature enables you to reverse operations you perform while working with a document. You can undo document changes such as typing, cutting, pasting, and formatting.

To undo your most recent action, choose the Undo option from the Quick Access Toolbar menu or click the Undo toolbar button. Word keeps track of the changes that you make in your document and lists then in the Undo drop-down list. By choosing an item from the Undo list, you can reverse multiple operations. When you select an item from the Undo list, all operations between the most recently performed one and the selected one are reversed. Word also provides a Redo feature. The Redo Edit menu option and the Redo toolbar button enable you to reverse the last Undo action you performed.

Viewing and Copying Formatting Once you format your text the way you want it to appear, you can use zoom control to magnify the text so that you can examine its formatting. You can also view a summary of text formatting. In addition, Word enables you to copy formatting from one text selection to others in a document.

Viewing Text Formatting Word allows you to choose how large an area you see in the document window by specifying a zoom value from ten to five hundred percent of the actual text size. The zoom control dialog box (shown below in Figure 2-3) is particularly useful when you are formatting text and you need to alternate between viewing the details of the document and viewing the effects of text formatting on the entire page.
