Automatic text correction
Canvas can automatically fix typographical mistakes as you type. The Auto Correct manager lets you
select several automatic correction options. It also lets you specify common misspellings, typing
errors, and abbreviations that you want Canvas to replace as you type.
When any text replacement option is active, Canvas checks each word you type. It corrects or
replaces text as appropriate once you press the Spacebar.
Auto Correct options
Use the options in the Auto Correct manager to specify corrections you want Canvas to make as you
type (see "Setting preferences" on page 97).
