How can we help you?
Application: Text Web version

When you enter text from the keyboard, the application automatically formats some characters to comply with typographical rules.

Automatically replaces a hyphen with a dash

Since there is no dash sign on the keyboard, the program automatically replaces hyphen (-) with a middle dash (–) if the following condition is met: the hyphen is surrounded by spaces and is between words. Example: text – text.

The replacement also occurs if you press Enter or Tab after the hyphen with spaces.

Automatic replacement of quotation marks

When you enter text in Russian or French, straight quotation marks ("``") are automatically replaced by paired guillemets (« »). Example: Entering "text" will turn into «text».
