Quick Fonts
Quick fonts are a series of six predefined fonts configurable on a per notebook
basis. PieceWorx Writing Studio contains hotkeys and menu items for applying one
of the quick fonts to your selected text. This is much quicker than opening the
font dialog every time you want to apply a font.
The six fonts you can customize are
- Heading 1
- Heading 2
- Heading 3
- Normal
- Emphasized
- Small
To change the font associated with one of the six quick fonts, click the Change
button for that font. You will see the following standard font dialog. Make your
selections and click OK.
Observe that the font information to the right of the Change button has
updated and that the font sample in the textbox at the right of the window is now
displaying your selected font.
Your changes will be saved the next time you save your notebook.
To revert to the default font, you may click the
Use Default button.
The default font will always be a fixed width font. If your computer contains the
Consolas font, then it will
be used as the default font family. Consolas is a fixed width font originally created
for use by programmers. It was designed to be easier to read on computer screens
than other fonts. If your computer does not contain Consolas, then your default
font will likely be Courier New. If you don't like these, that's OK, you are free
to choose your favorite.
The Consolas font is my personal favorite for writing and programming. I recommend
it. It comes with Windows Vista and higher, but if it is not installed on your computer,
you should be able to find a free download by doing a simple web search.
