= SUMMARY =

To format text for inverse printing (white letters on a dark background) in Microsoft Word, the selected printer driver must support font colors other than black in Format Character.

To determine which font colors are available with the selected printer driver, choose Format Character and press F1 from the “font color:” field.

To format text for inverse printing (white letters on a dark background), follow these steps:


 * 1) Highlight the text and choose Format Character.
 * 2) From the “font color:” field, press F1 and choose White from the list of available colors.
 * 3) With the text still highlighted, choose Format Border and enter a number from 0 (no shading) to 100 (solid shading) or press F1 and select a shading value from the list.

Note: Shading applied with the Format Border command applies to the entire paragraph and not just the selected text.
