Get Control of Yourself!

This section is dedicated to the Control Key.
By himself, he's not much to look at.
Put him together with a friend, he's a Dynamo!
Let's start at the top of the alphabet and see what he does with a buddy.
Remember, you'll need to select text first before applying changes.

Ctrl-BBoldCtrl-OOpen an existing document
Ctrl-CCopyCtrl-OOpen an existing document
Ctrl-DFormat:FontCtrl-PPrint
Ctrl-ECenter ParagraphCtrl-QReset Paragraph to default

Ctrl-JJustify ParagraphCtrl-VPaste
Ctrl-KInsert HyperlinkCtrl-WClose Document
Ctrl-LLeft Align ParagraphCtrl-XCut
Ctrl-MIndent ParagraphCtrl-YRepeat Action/Command

Super Tip: Instead of selecting an entire paragraph, place your insertion point anywhere in the paragraph and try applying one of the paragraph commands. (Ctrl-E, Ctrl-J, Ctrl-L or Ctrl-R)

Now you know that you can match up Control with every letter of the alphabet and get a result. Most of them make sense: B for Bold, N for New, U for Underline and so on. As for the rest, pick and choose the ones that'll be most useful.
