    Formatting Text

    Author comes fully equipped with the standard text formatting tools. In the Format Bar (Figure 3-2) you’ve got the basics:

    Styles Drawer icon

    This icon toggles the Styles Drawer open and closed (more about the Style Drawer in Styles and the Styles Drawer).

    Paragraph icon

    Lists all the paragraph styles in your document for you to choose from (see Paragraph Styles, below).

    “a” icon

    Lists all the character styles in your document (see Character Styles, below).

    Tip

    You don’t need to select an entire word to apply the next few options. Just click within any word, and when you choose a new value, the whole word will change. However, you want to change more than a word, or if you want to change an entire paragraph, you’ll need to select it.
