Stylish Paragraph:

Paragraph Styles allows defining a group of settings for font typeface, size, color, line spacing, bullets, etc, and we can then apply all of those settings at once to the paragraphs selected.

The first thing we need to do is create the new style(s) that we want to use. Begin by typing out a few sentences and then apply the formatting choices (font, spacing, color, etc) that we want to use in the future. Once we have things looking the way we 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 to use.





Now any time we want to apply the new style we 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.



This will be very helpful to apply our style after we copy and paste information from the web into Notes documents or from other mails.
