===== Font (character) Formatting Properties =====

These control words (described as <chrfmt> in the syntax description) change font (character) formatting properties. A control word preceding plain text turns on the specified attribute. 
\\
Some control words (indicated in the following table by an asterisk ***** following the description) can be turned off by the control word followed by 0 . For example, \b turns on bold, while **\b0** turns off bold. \\

Die meisten Formatierungen können mit dem Befehl **\plain** ausgeschaltet werden.\\

Bei Formatierung, die in **Gruppen** vorgenommen werden, schaltet das Gruppenende-Zeichen aus. Eine Gruppe wird mit **{** begonnen und mit **}** beendet. Bsp.: **{\i Text}** führt zum selben Ergebnis wie **\i Text\plain** oder **\i Text\i0**.\\ 

Nach einem Befehl muss immer ein Leerzeichen kommen; dieses kann entfallen, wenn direkt ein zweiter Befehl folgt. Also **\i Text**, aber **\i\b Text**.\\

The font (character)-formatting control words are listed in the following table.
