does not match one you have added to your copy of Nisus Writer Pro, that
Language name appears at the bottom of the Language submenu.
“Language” is an attribute of your text, not the document. If done correctly,
changing the language of a part of the text changes the input method (keyboard),
dictionary and/or thesaurus (if available) and font (if appropriate).

Remove Language Attribute

Removes any user applied languages, allowing the system language
or languages defined by styles to be used instead.
The command is enabled whenever the selection has a particular
language attribute applied.
When in the Find/Replace window this command displays as Any
Language
. In this instance it functions the same as having the
Attribute Sensitive checkbox unchecked (for that particular
attribute
).

Edit Languages…

Opens the Languages preferences dialog in which you can modify
existing or create new language settings.

Font

Choose commands from the Font submenus of the Format menu to apply to your
text any of the fonts you have that your version of the OS can display. These are
generally in any of the following folders

/Library/Fonts

~/Library/Fonts

/Network/Library/Fonts

/System/Library/Fonts
and any fonts in the Fonts folder of the OS 9.x, Classic “System Folder” so long as
they are not being managed by a Classic font management tool.
Choose a font from the various submenus of the Font submenu to apply it to the
current selection. If you have no text selected, Nisus Writer Pro applies the font
change at the insertion point, and as you type, the text displays in the font you
have chosen.
The fonts appear in the list displayed in their own font (WYSIWYG) if you set your
Appearance Preferences of Nisus Writer Pro to do this (see “Choose Various
Display Options for Your Documents”
on page 372). Displaying the Font
submenus this way causes initial activation of the application to take longer.

Show Fonts

Opens the Fonts panel which allows you to choose from various sets
of fonts or font families, the typefaces they support, and their
various sizes.

Remove Font Attribute

Removes any user applied fonts from the selection, allowing the
System font or the underlying font defined by styles and/or the
Nisus New File to be used instead.
The command is enabled whenever the selection has a particular
font attribute applied.
When in the Find/Replace window this command displays as Any
Font
. In this instance it functions the same as having the Attribute
Sensitive
checkbox unchecked (for that particular attribute).

All Fonts

Displays all the fonts you have that your version of the OS can
display.
Nisus Writer Pro lists all available fonts in the submenu which you

in the selection.
