The user can also adjust the positions of different characters in the text. The ‘Position’ tab option helps
                  to position the placement of letters in relation to each other.
                  Some options for positioning the text/characters are:

                       Superscript: It raises the text slightly above the rest of the text, e.g., A  + B 2
                                                                                             2
                  l
                       Subscript: It lowers the text slightly below the rest of the text, e.g., H O
                  l
                                                                                           2
                       Rotation/Scaling: It rotates the selected text towards left/right by given degree of angle, e.g., 0 ,
                                                                                                                     0
                  l
                       90  and 270 .
                          0
                                   0
                       Spacing: It enables us to expand the text width wise of increase the readability.
                  l
                  l    Pair Kerning: This option enables automatic kerning for characters to adjust spacing between
                       them.

                            Notes

                            Kerning is the adjustment of space between letters so that no letter appears too far from its
                            neighbouring  characters.  If  the  size  of  a  word  is  increased,  space  will  appear  between  the  two
                            adjacent letters. With kerning, this gap between characters is reduced and adjusted accordingly.



                  Format Paintbrush

                  ‘Format Paintbrush’ is a tool which is used to apply the same type of formatting which is on a particular
                  content; to some other content. This saves time and effort and can synchronize the display by applying
                  the same style of formatting in different places in a document.
                  To activate it:

                  Step 1:   Select the formatted text.
                  Step 2:     Click on ‘Format Paintbrush’ button from the standard toolbar. The mouse pointer will change
                            into the shape of Format Paintbrush.

                  Step 3:   Select the new text on which the same formatting has to be done.
