How To Show Formatting In Word 365

By Carol Bratt / 06/16/2021 / How-To, Microsoft Word, Windows 10

I wish I had a nickel for every time someone has lamented how they could always see their formatting in WordPerfect but cannot in Microsoft Word.

Well, rejoice folks! Why? Because you can see your formatting in Word! And what’s more, it’s very easy to do so!

Follow the steps below to learn how:

In order to reveal formatting in Word, simply press SHIFT + F1.
A dialog window will appear on the right-hand side of your screen.

You can now just click anywhere in your document or select text and you will see all the formatting applied therein, including font, language, effects, etc.

You are welcome!
