Editing

When you open a document, the document is opened in the appropriate editor or viewer (received faxes are opened in the fax viewer, downloaded figures in the image viewer, etc.). The available commands vary according to the editor/viewer.

If the opened document is very large (dozens of pages), the time required before the document opens and can be scrolled or edited is longer than with smaller documents.

Documents that open in the Note editor can be directly edited and formatted. To format the text, press Style. The following options are available:

Font — URW Roman / URW Sans (default) / URW Mono (true type fonts)

Size — 10 / 12 (default)/ 14 / 18 / 24 / 36 / User defined (measured in points)

Bold (Ctrl-B) — On / Off (default)

Italics (Ctrl-I) — On / Off (default)

Notes settings

Underlined (Ctrl-U) — On / Off (default) Justification — Left (default) / Centered / Right / Full

Margins — Opens a new view where you can choose a value (default is 2.54 centimeters/ 1 inch) for the top, left, right and bottom margins. The unit of measurement is chosen in the System settings (see Chapter 10 "Sys- tem: System settings" on page 10-1).

A new style setting affects all new text from the cursor point forward. The margin settings, how- ever, apply to the whole document. To change the settings permanently, you must do it in the main view settings (see Chapter 10 "System: System settings" on page 10-1).

Created and downloaded

texts

All created documents, as well as downloaded and captured texts (see Chapter 7 "Internet: Connecting to WWW" on page 7-13, and ”Text transfers” on page 7-17), can be opened in the Notes editor.
