Here are settings which control automatic list generation as well which many people find either wonderful or incredibly annoying. Autoformat As You Type applies formatting based on what Word thinks you’re attempting to do, for example replacing the typed sequence “1/2” with an actual fraction ½ character.The Replace text as you type list is a convinient way to define shortcuts for common or awkward entries and comes prepopulated with conversions such as “(c)” being replaced with the copyright symbol ©. This is controlled by the Correct TWo INitial CApitals checkbox. For example a common error is to hold down the shift key just a little too long after starting a sentence, resulting in two capital letters instead of one. AutoCorrect looks for common typographical errors and fixes them for you.
