Auto-Conversion

Auto-Conversion allows you to type in different keyboard sequences and convert it into different types of formatted text or apply features.

Paragraph

• Ordered List / Unordered List

  • By entering an asterick "*" followed by space and text content and then by pushing the Enter key, you can have this converted to a bullet list.
    For example, typing the following
    

    * content goes here

and then pressing the Enter key will give you a bullet list. You can also use a dash mark ( - ) instead of the asterisk for the same effect.

By using numbers, you can easily create a numbered list, by typing "1." followed by a single space, your content, and press the Enter key.
