Toolbar only shows symbols plus font question

[Ksenia Roshchakovsky]

I have 2 questions:

When I copy/paste text from another source (another email message or a Word
document) into an email message, the font changes to a different
typestyle/size which Entourage does not allow me to change. I end up having
to retype it all if I want it to look uniform rather than like a ransom
note. What do I need to do to fix this problem?

Secondly, my toolbar only shows symbols and not the title for what the
symbol stands for. I¹ve tried changing the toolbar by selecting those items
again but it doesn¹t work. Could I have accidentally pressed some key and
turned that off? Can¹t figure what I pressed.

Thirdly, Entourage automatically formats when I don¹t want it to. For
example, I started the first item with ³1.² and when I hit ³enter² twice, it
double spaced the lines and right flushed a word.

Thank you,

Ksenia

Turn off HTML and it will all look the same. Other wise you should be able
to select the text and change font and size.

stands for. I¹ve tried changing the toolbar by selecting those items again

Under View in the Menu bar, select Customize Toolbar. Turn on Icon & Text.
You can also control click in the toolbar to get this option. Each window in
Entourage has different icons available.

Thirdly, Entourage automatically formats when I don¹t want it to. For

Entourage's HTML is very limited. Use Word if you want to use a lot of
formatting.

Thanks for the help.

Entourage is behaving like Word with automatic formatting that I do not
want. Is there a way for me to turn that off?

Try Tools>AutoCorrect.
