- You can create two types of font a copy and save the copy in a folder of your choice.
- Then delete both headings. If you now create a sticky note, write you with a more technical universal font (see Screenshot).
- Your short notes, you can format it however, regardless of the Font varied. With the key combination [Ctrl] + [B] your Text in bold, the key combination [Ctrl] + [U] underlines the Text, while [Ctrl] + [T] to paint it by. With the combination [Ctrl] + [Shift] + [L] create a list.
