Lotus Notes – Paragraph Styling:

Paragraph Styles allow you to define a group of settings for font typeface, size, colour, line spacing, bullets, etc, and you can then apply all of those settings at once to the paragraphs you select.

The first thing you need to do is create the new style(s) you want to use. Begin by typing out a few sentences and then apply the formatting choices (font, spacing, colour, etc) that you want to use in the future. Once you have things looking the way you want, select the text and press ALT+ENTER to bring up the Text Properties Box. Click on the last tab, and click Create Style, then enter the name you wish to use.



Now any time you want to apply your awesome new style you can do so from either a) the menu "Text - Apply Style", b) the Styles tab of the Properties Box (shown above), or c) By pressing F11 to cycle through the available styles.
