I am typing a quasi legal document and used the letters P for Plaintif and D
for Defendent. Is there a way to automatically convert them to the full word
?
Not with the single letters -- or else *every* P in the document would
be changed to Plaintiff and every D would be changed to Defendant (and
I hope you spell them correctly in your documents).
If you choose a unique two-character abbreviation for each word, you
can use them as the names of AutoCorrect entries. For example, you
could use /p for Plaintiff and /d for Defendant.
To make an AutoCorrect entry, type the expanded word in the document,
select it, go to Tools > AutoCorrect Options, and enter the
abbreviation in the Replace box.
