When you are not sure how you want a document to appear, AutoFormat can help you select the appropriate look. AutoFormat analyzes each paragraph in a document and then applies the appropriate formatting. For example, if AutoFormat detects a heading, it automatically applies a heading style. Specify the extent of the formatting applied by enabling or disabling particular options on the AutoFormat page in the AutoCorrect dialog box, available in Proofing in Word Options . All options are enabled by default. Options that can be enabled or disabled in the Apply section include applying automatic formatting to headings, lists, automatic bulleted lists, and other paragraphs. Replace options include replacing straight quotes ( " ) with smart quotes ( “ , ” ), ordinals ( 1st , 2nd , 3rd , etc.) with superscripts ( 1 st , 2 nd , 3 rd , etc.), and typed fractions ( 1/4 ) with fraction characters ( ¼ ) for any fraction available in the current character set.
