CorelDraw has an option called Quick Correct that will automatically replace a string of text with a predefined string. For example, one could enter "ADN" and it will automatically be replaced with "AND".
Quick Correct is found under Text / Writing Tools / Quick Correct.
When I enter a fraction like 1/2 (in 24 point), Quick Correct will automatically replace it with a smaller point size 1/2.
My list of Quick Correct has the 1/2 fraction replacement, there are no corrections for other fractions such as 1/4, 1/8, etc.
I know how to add another "correction definition" but I can not figure out how to make the "replacement text" a smaller point size.
So my question is this;
I want to add 1/4 to the quick correct list. In the "REPLACE" box I enter 1/4, in the "WITH" box I again enter 1/4. The question is…How do I change the point size of the fraction in the "With" box???
Thanks

Barry....1/4 or ¼ is actually alt/0188 and MUST be typed on the numeric keypad...not the numbers across the top of your keyboard.
PS: the code for ¾ is alt/0190
As far as point size is concerned the ½ is concerned, in CorelDraw, it looks to be the same point size as the rest of a sentence to me since the overall height of the character is the same as the caps in the sentence.
