Format Text in Text Objects

When a text object is selected, the Edit menu has Text Font, Text Size, and Text Style menus. These work as they do in most programs. Alternatively, there's a text palette, which you can show or hide, that contains these menus, a menu for changing text color, and a variety of special symbols.

1. To insert mathematical and statistical symbols into your text object, choose Edit | Show Text Palette.

2. If necessary, click in a text object to activate the palette and click the button to expand its symbols and special characters section.

3. If a symbol you want isn't visible, the rightmost button of the symbols palette is a pop-up menu with even more symbols.
