HACK 01: Keyboard shortcuts

If you remember these 3-4 keyboard shortcuts, I bet you can speed up your writing, editing, and proofreading.

  2. CTRL + SHIFT + < = Descrease font size
  3. ASTERISK + SPACEBAR = Quick bulleted list
  4.  * + CTRL = Show and Hide mark
  5. CTRL + C = Copy
  6. CTRL + V = Paste
