Be sure not to miss up this feature: TextEdit Font Editor. Oh, don't worry, it's already there inside TextEdit, so you don't need to do any extra download.

Let's see what is it..

I made it all only with Font Editor and Colors Editor of TextEdit. Surprising? (I hope so, but the fact is not)

In short, with TextEdit, it's possible to have our favorite font colorful, shadowy and clean. Maybe we can call this thing mini-photoshop text-styler, oh such a long name.. and the style can be copied and pasted to another text. Later I'll tell you, one by one, okay?

First of all, Font Editor..

allows us to make font modification inside TextEdit, this including changing Font Family, Typeface, Font Size, Text Decoration, and so on.

Call out this pane with keystroke T. This keystroke also helps you kick away that pane.

Then, hm.., Colors Editor..

helps you colorize font inside TextEdit. I love this.

Open up this pane is a little bit tricky. You cannot use C as it is already taken by another action (you know what I mean). Why not we try for C? Fortunately, it just works.

What's next? Is it Style Copying? Whatever, just discuss it..

Try pressing C while highlighting some words that have been customized. Nothing happens.

Now highlight other normal words and press down keystroke V, what will happen? Obviously, you will see that the styles is being copied to your normal font. It's such a piece of cake.
