Bold text
-
Several web sites can convert plain text to bold, italic, etc. which can be then copied into Facebook. For example https://capitalizemytitle.com/bold-text-generator/ If the NP++ encoding is set to UTF-16, some of the output from these converting web sites will appear as bold or italic when pasted into NP++.
However, this text will not retain its bold/italic if edited.
This suggests that bold or italic text could some how be directly typed into NP++ -

This suggests that bold or italic text could some how be directly typed into NP++The way this website works is that it replaces your characters with Unicode characters in peculiar ranges. Thus, if you enter:
Show me.
into that website, you get back:
๐๐ก๐จ๐ฐ ๐ฆ๐.But those are not the letters S, h, o, w, etc. rendered in a bold font; they are different characters entirely. If you paste into this web site
youโll see the analysis โ the letters are actually mathematical symbols.So, when you edit and type using the keyboard, youโre typing ordinary letters, not these odd Unicode characters.
