In Word 2016 for Mac I am attempting to reprogram some keys and create key combinations to activate fonts I use in my everyday work, but am finding myself frustrated with its quirks. For example: I use the font Myriad Pro Semibold Italic quite a bit to emphasize terms in my lecture notes. For years, I have used the F3 function key for this purpose; but, the key needs to be reprogrammed to do this. Here are the steps used to create this shortcut: – Using the 'Customize Keyboard' command from the pull down menu, locate 'Fonts' in the 'Categories' window on the left. Scroll down to Myriad Pro Semibold It in the 'Commands' window on the right and select it. – Press the F3 key at the 'Press new keyboard shortcut:' window. Push the 'Assign' button.

– The next window below is labeled 'Description', which is also where one begins to notice that something is not working. Instead of showing a Myriad Pro Semibold Italic preview, it shows Myriad Pro Semibold without italics. (What is even stranger is that to the right of the word 'Sample' there is a word written in Hebrew script – dugmah.) – Press OK and end the process. Save the new shortcut to the 'Normal' template, which should make it available to all documents and templates; or, you can save it as I do to a separate template I created specifically for lectures.

When I test the shortcut in a new or previously created document, it does not work properly. Pressing the F3 key will give me text in Myriad Pro Semibold, but not Myriad Pro Semibold Italic. I have tried many times now to make it work but without success. However, if I open Word 2011 and go through the same process there, the shortcut works perfectly as it always has. As nearly as I can determine, modifications to text using custom key modifications that involve italicizing text will not work in Word 2016. I have also tried the other way to do this--creating a macro to format the text.

It always fails to work properly. The macro created will reformat the text and make it Myriad Pro Semibold, but the macro will not record the actual font Myriad Pro Semibold It, nor can you get it to italicize the text using the italicize command separately.

For someone like myself who has created custom templates upon he relies, it is inadvisable to upgrade during the middle of a semester.
