THE SOFT PERIOD (Ctrl Period)
Press Ctrl. (i.e., Ctrl+period key). The character · may be used in
PC-TYPE+ files in place of the period to keep from inserting two
blanks between a period and the next word. Normally you want two
spaces at the end of a sentence, and the Alt2 Toggle provides you with
this capability. However, you do not want two spaces between the
period in Mr. and the S in Smith.
If you type Mr· Smith, when you reformat this paragraph, an extra
space WILL NOT be inserted after the · . The Print Character
Translation Table, a sub-panel of the MODIFY DEFAULTS panel, has been
set up so that when you print your PC-TYPE+ file, the "·" character
will be replaced by the "." (normal period) before sending it to the
printer.
Press the PgDn Key
THE HARD SPACE (Ctrl Space Bar)
Hold down the Ctrl Key and press the Space Bar. The character is
interpreted by PC-TYPE+ to be a Hard Space. Normally when you
reformat a paragraph, you want the breaks to be as natural as
possible. Sometimes, however, you may not want to words to be split.
By placing a Hard Space between these two words, e.g., LIKETHIS, when
you reformat the paragraph, PC-TYPE+ will treat "LIKETHIS" as one
word and hence they will always remain together.
The Print Character Translation Table, a sub-panel of the MODIFY
DEFAULTS panel, has been set up so that when you print your PC-TYPE+
file, the "" character will be replaced by the " " (normal space)
before sending it to the printer.
