If you choose ‘In line with text’ you can insert it inline, but it sits on the baseline and looks rubbish. Format the border and colours as necessary.Ģ. Insert a textbox or a rounded rectangle, whatever takes your fancy. The closest thing I can come up with is this (and I hesitate because it’s not simple, neat or scaleable and takes a bit of time to set up):ġ. The paragraph styling is what you need to add a border and control the indentation (which would be used for padding within your button). The character styling applies to the individual characters. Unfortunately, you cannot create a style to add a box around a word or phrase. The sentence you see boked in point #3 above is a quick screenshot of the finished sentence from the document. The OK button is a screen capture directly from the Word dialog box.

The Tab was created by downloading a free Keystroke font then inserting the appropriate symbol from that font. The effects you see in point #3 above were created like this. Okay, first, let me deliver the bad news before I make a couple of suggestions. I’m looking for a way to change the font style so that it happens automatically when the character style is changed. But, then MS Word thinks there is a spelling error. PS: I can “hack” this by manually “adding extra spaces” as needed. My style shows the left border nearly on top of the first character and I’d like maybe 3 or more spaces in advance so that the word is properly centered on the button.

So, my question is, how do I “add space” both before the first character and after the last character (not in between the characters, as would be the case with expanded font spacing). I can not get this effect and my buttons are squished closed to the border. You have a similar effect in item #3 above, with your “Tab” and “OK” buttons and it appears perfectly. I have created a character style called “button” where the font has a border around the word. I can’t seem to find the answer elsewhere online. But, I had a question that I thought you may be able to help. I learned a few things about kerning and ligatures.
