Summary-Ch. 3 Formatting Formatting such as bold, underline, and italic can

add emphasis to text. Bold text is thicker and darker. Italicized text slants to the right. You can change the font using the buttons on the

Home Ribbon. Font choices can help to add emotion to your text. The default font in Microsoft Word is Calibri, size 11.


Summary (continued) The largest font size is 1638. You should not use more than three different fonts

within a document. Using more than one font color within a word makes

it hard to read. Bullets are small dots, pictures, or symbols used to

identify items in a list. Wingdings is a very popular bullet font. Lists can be formatted to include bullets or numbers.
