Frequently Asked Questions

Q1: What is the difference between character shading and highlighting?

  • Solution: Character shading adds a gray shading fill effect to text, suitable for formal document formatting marks; highlighting can use multiple colors, similar to a fluorescent marker effect, and is more suitable for temporary annotation and review scenarios.

Q2: Why does the font shading appear light red?

  • Solution: This may be the display effect of official document domain marks. Click "File" → "Options" → "View", find the "Official document domain marks" option, select "Do not display", and click "OK" to restore normal display.

Q3: How do I remove the gray shading that appears when clicking on a table of contents?

  • Solution: Click "File" → "Options" → "View", and under "Show document content", set "Field shading" to "Never".
