1 Unquoted text that isn't a command is considered to be a variable. Variables are, by default, italicized.
2 There are three custom fonts: sans serif (without kicks), serifs (with kicks), and fixed (non proportional). To
change the actual fonts used for custom fonts and the fonts used for variables (unquoted text), numbers and
functions, use: Format > Fonts.
