Bold, Italic, and Underlined Characters

You can embed controls that change the state of the bold and italic attributes within the
text part of an entry.

To change the state of the bold setting, insert an up arrow followed by the letter “B” (^B).

00:00:12:04 , 00:00:14:12 , Lemurs are ^Bbullies^B.

In the above example, the bold status changes for the word “bullies” only. If the bold
attribute had not already been activated, “bullies” would change to bold. If the bold
attribute had already been activated, “bullies” would not be bold.

To change the state of the italic setting, insert an up arrow followed by the letter “I” (^I).
You can also use bold and italic together.

00:00:12:04 , 00:00:14:12 , Lemurs are ^B^Ibullies^B^I.

In the above example, the word “bullies” has both the bold and italic attributes change.

To add an underline to portions of the text, insert an up arrow followed by the letter “U”
(^U). You can use the underline along with the bold and italic settings.
