Format Characters Within Multiline Text
You can override the text style and apply different formatting to individual
words and characters within multiline text.
The format changes affect only the text you select; the current text style is
not changed.
You can specify a different font and text height and apply boldface, italics,
underlining, overlining, and color. You can also set an obliquing angle, change
the space between characters, and make characters wider or narrower. The
Remove Formatting option on the In-Place Text Editor shortcut menu resets
the character attributes of selected text to the current text style and text color.
The text height setting specifies the height of capitalized text. For more
information about how height is calculated, see MTEXT.

Create Lists in Multiline Text
You can create bulleted lists, lettered or numbered lists, or simple outlines in
multiline text.
Lines of multiline text can be formatted as a list. When you add or delete an
item, or move an item up or down a level, the list numbering automatically
adjusts. You can remove and reapply list formatting with the same method
as used in most text editors.
Use Automatic List Formatting
By default, list formatting is applied to all text that looks like a list. Text that
meets all the following criteria is considered to be a list:
 The line begins with one or more letters or numbers or a symbol.
 The letters or numbers is followed by punctuation.
 A space after the punctuation is created by pressing Tab.
 The text following the space is ended by Enter or Shift-Enter.
