When the toolbar is visible, you can use its buttons to format text. The changes you make in preview are temporary.
The keystrokes listed in the following tables also assign formatting to selected text.
Keyboard shortcuts do not work in the painter
These keystrokes work only when you are running the report.
In InfoMaker, only keyboard shortcuts defined for menu items in
