The Home tab is always on the ribbon. It holds the tools you use most while you write and lay out a page.
- Clipboard has Paste, Cut, Copy, and Copy Formatting, which copies how text looks onto another box. See Format text.
- Font changes the font, size, color, and style of letters. See Format text.
- Paragraph has bullets, numbering, indents, alignment, and spacing for whole paragraphs. See Bullets, numbering, and tabs.
- Styles is a gallery of named looks you can apply with one click, and a way to make your own. See Use styles.
- Objects draws a text box, inserts a table, adds pictures, and draws shapes. See Add and format text boxes.
- Arrange controls how objects wrap text, stack, group, align, and rotate. See Move, align, group, and layer objects.
- Editing has Find, Replace, Go To, and Select, which picks all the text in a box, all objects, or all objects of one kind. Go To (Ctrl+G) goes to a page by its number, or to a comment by its number or the next or previous one. See Find and replace text.
These pages are generated from JeffPub's built-in Help (resources/help/en in the repository) and are replaced on each update, so edits belong in the repository.
