Editing
When you open a document, the document is
opened in the appropriate editor or viewer (re-
ceived faxes are opened in the fax viewer, down-
loaded figures in the image viewer, etc.). The
available commands vary according to the edi-
tor/viewer.
If the opened document is very large (dozens of
pages), the time required before the document
opens and can be scrolled or edited is longer than
with smaller documents.
Documents that open in the Note editor can be
directly edited and formatted. To format the text,
press
Style
. The following options are available:
Font: URW Roman
/ URW Sans (default) /
URW Mono (true type fonts)

Margins
— Opens a new view where you can
choose a value (default is 2.54 centimetres/1
inch) for the top, left, right and bottom mar-
gins. The unit of measurement is chosen in
the System settings (see chapter 10 "System:
System settings").
A new style setting affects all new text from the
cursor point forward. The margin settings, how-
ever, apply to the whole document. To change
the settings permanently, you must do it in the
main view settings (see chapter 10 "System: Sys-
tem settings").
Special characters and short-
cuts
The special character key Chr (on the keyboard)
is used to create letters that are not included in
the keyboard. The character key can always be
used when you are able to enter characters from
the keyboard. The case of the inserted special
character is determined by whether the Shift or
Caps lock key has been pressed.
To enter special characters from the character
table:
Press and release the Chr key and a special
character table opens on the screen. Move
the selection frame over the desired special
character with the arrow keys, scroll buttons
or by pressing a keyboard key.
Press the
Insert
command button to close the
character table and to insert the selected
character to the left of the cursor.
To insert special characters from the keyboard:
Press and hold the Chr key and simultaneous-
ly press a key with a special character printed
on the key as the third (green) character. The
special key will be inserted on the display.
In addition, special characters can be gener-
ated in the above described way using certain
unmarked keys, for example, “a” and “e.” If
you continue to hold the Chr key down and
press the same letter key again, the second
special character is shown in the place of the
first, and so on, until the first character is
shown again.
The following shortcuts can be used in many ed-
itors to edit the text. To use the key combina-
tions, press two keyboard keys at the same time
(indicated with hyphen “-” in the following ta-
ble).
