6 Quick Tips Every Zoho Writer User Should Know

From RFPs to sales reports, document creation is a vital part of any organization. A large amount of time and energy is spent in authoring documents. When dealing with an extensive document, the process becomes even more tedious. But with Zoho Writer you can make the process less tiresome and more productive.  
Here are some easy tips highlighting the less obvious features in the tool that can save you a lot of time:

Quick List Creation:
Zoho Writer supports easy-to-write plain text format, which then converts to a rich text. To create a list  item, type '*' and hit the space button to create a bullet list or type ' 1.' and hit space button for an ordered list.

Drag and Drop Text:
You can drag and drop a block of text from one place to another in the document easily. Select the text by double-clicking the word or phrase, click and drag the highlighted text to a new place in the document, and release the mouse button. Zoho Writer automatically inserts the text you selected into the document at its new location.

Move a Block of Text:
To move a complete paragraph up or down, just place your cursor anywhere in the paragraph (highlighting is not required) that you intend to move, and press and hold the Ctrt+Shift+Up/Down keys in Mac and Alt+Shift+Up/Down in Window to move the paragraph to the desired location. This action also allows you to move any row of a table up or down.

Drag Images into Document:

To insert a picture into a document, click and drag the image from a folder on your hard drive or on your desktop into the browser window. 


Move Image:

Not only text, you can also move your images to set it right. Click and drag the image to move across the document and release it to add it to the new location.  Zoho Writer automatically inserts the image into the document at this new location.


Repeat Last Action

You can easily repeat your last performed action without repeating the steps again. For example, if you have changed the font of a selected text and want to change another portion of text to the same font, you can just highlight the text and press  Cmd +Y (Mac) / Ctrl +Y (Windows) to change the font automatically.


So next time you are stuck with a huge document, you know what to do!
