 Hello everyone, this is Amit Don of amitdon.com. If this is your first time here or if you're a repeat visitor, thank you for your support. On this channel, I'm always trying new and different ideas. If that is something you're interested in, please come back for more. If you're only interested in tutorial videos, there are more links in the description box below. Today I'll talk about how to copy formatting in Google Docs. So copy formatting allows you to transfer or take same style across different parts of your document. So you don't have to do the same thing again and again, which can be very time-wasting. Instead, you just copy the formatting and apply it to different parts or any parts or any section of your document. So we're looking at an article which I wrote for my Egypt travel journals and this is actually I'm publishing on my website. So I'm going to take a part from this document. So let's say we're going to copy the title formatting and I'd like to transfer this formatting from here onto the other parts of document. So what do you need to do? You have to just put your cursor anywhere from which you'd like to copy the formatting. So just put your cursor here and then you can see that you know the cursor is right there or you can just you know even highlight the whole section. You can do it that way. So let's say we'll just you know put the cursor here and you're going to go to this tool which is called paint format. So if you click on it then your cursor you can see that you know your cursor is right now just a cursor but when you click on it then it's going to change to a paint roller. So let's do that. So we click on here and now you can see that you know your cursor is a paint roller and you have to just you know go over where you want to change the formatting. So right now we have copied formatting from this sentence and let's say you'd like to put it here. So what I'm going to do I'm going to just drag it and if I let my mouse go then you can see that you know it changed formatting and again my cursor is back to normal so I don't have any more paint roller. So let's say instead of just you know doing it one time you want to do it many times then what you can do you can apply the same thing but instead of a single click you just do a double click. So for example let's do it again. We'll put our cursor right here and we'll just double click and now you can you'll see that you know I'm going to format this portion and I will let my mouse go but still I have the paint roller icon on so that means that you know I can just keep formatting as long as I want. So if I don't want my cursor or if I want to get rid of the copying portion then all you have to do you have to just you know click here and then it's going to be gone. Another way to do the same thing instead of pressing the button right here is that you can use the keyboard shortcuts which would be Ctrl-Alt-C to copy and to paste you just use Ctrl-Alt-V and you see these you know comments in the description box below. So that's all for today. Thank you for watching this video. There will be more videos coming up so I'll see you shortly.
