Documentation Conventions
The following table describes important conventions used in the

Convention Description Example
Multiple platforms The Corel Painter User Guide is
for both the Mac OS and
Windows platforms. As a
convention, Mac OS commands
precede Windows commands in
the text.
Hold down Command (Mac OS)
or Ctrl (Windows).
Modifier keys When a modifier key differs
between Mac OS and Windows,
the Mac OS modifier is listed
first, followed by the Windows
modifier.
“Command + I (Mac OS) or Ctrl
+ I (Windows)” means that
Mac OS users would press
Command + I and Windows
users would press Ctrl + I.
