The Web Factory Text menu provides separate selections to change text color, font face and add text styles. Use Character Properties to format a block of text with more than one enhancement, such as changing text color, increasing the font size, and adding bold and italic styles.

1. To add text enhancements:
   1. Select the text that you want to enhance.

   2. Click on the Text menu and select Character Properties.
      The Character Properties box is displayed.

      

   3. To change the font color:
      1. Click on the Pick button.
         The Color Pallet is displayed.
      2. Click on the color that you want to use.
         The color is displayed in the color/solid block.

   4. To change the font size:
      1. Click the drop down icon to see the list of font sizes.
         This list provides HTML font sizes 1 (smallest) through 7 (largest). Size 3 is the default, which is approximately equivalent to 12 point text.
         Navigator only: Also provides font sizes "big" and "small". Big adds one point to the current font size. Small subtracts one point from the current font size.

   5. To change the Font Face:
      1. Click on the Font Face drop down icon to see the list of fonts.
         Be careful in choosing fonts. Most browsers match fonts to what fonts are available on the PC where the Web page is viewed.
      2. Click on the Font to select it.
         The font name is displayed in the box.

      Note	Although Web Factory display a complete list of all of your fonts while you are desiging a Web page, a user can only see a particular font if they have that font on their computer. If the font is not available, the browser will pick the closest font or default to Times New Roman.

      bold, italic, underline, _subscript, ^superscript, and strikethrough.
      Navigator only: Also provides the blinking text style.
      Explorer only: Also includes the Marquee text style.
      See Design Enhancements - Marquees for more information on creating a marquee.

   7. Click OK to close the Character Properties box.
      The text changes to reflect the options that you chose in the Character Properties box.
