Yesterday I tried doing what you said: selecting all, changing the background
to white and the font color to black, but the background stayed black, so I had
black on black, which makes it pretty hard to read (meaning impossible!) I
stopped by the office this afternoon, so I asked Gustavo, who tried exactly the
same thing that you and I did. He was surprised that it didn't work, but
instead of giving up like I did, he found the "Shading" option. Once he
changed the shading to "No fill", everything was great - the whole thing became
black letters on a white background, like it should be. So I'm going to edit
Rent and should have it uploaded for admin approval later this evening.
Thanks for your suggestion anyway! Carrie

Hi Carrie,
Have you tried highlighting the afending text and then changing the
text color under Font on the Format Menu? And then the background color via the
Background option on the Format menu? As well, hese items are generally on one
of the toolbars and I think, are the letter A with colors/backgrounds
interchanged.
Let me know how this works.
Jake

Hi all,
The good news is that I FINALLY finished proofreading RENT (about the
musical by Jonathan Larson).
The bad news is that a quarter of the pages are white text on a black
background, instead of the usual black text on a white background. IMHO, it's
harder to read white on black, so I'd like to change all those pages to black
on white. I've searched Microsoft Word, but I can't figure out how to change
them all, without retyping every word (not a pleasant option!). Does anyone
know the command to flip the colors around?
Thanks in advance for your help! Carrie
