CHARACTER AND PARAGRAPH FORMATTING
A GUIDE TO XPRESS TAGS 2019 | 3
Character and paragraph formatting
When you specify type styles using XPress Tags codes, <P> always sets the type style
to Plain. When you specify any other type style (for example, <B> for Bold), that
style is applied if it isn’t already specified, and is removed if it has been specified.
For example, the first time you specify <B>, the Bold type style is applied to the text
that follows. If you enter <B> again, the Bold type style is not applied to the text
that follows. If you enter <$>, the type style is set to the one specified in the current
style sheet. If a style sheet is not currently applied, the Normal style sheet is used.
