Delete formatting from Word document

To delete formatting from a document, you can use the undo buttons, or you can delete a mark manually.

Delete formatting using Undo buttons

To delete the last mark you applied, or to delete all marks in the document, you can use the undo buttons to delete the bookmark and the icon for your most recent action or for all actions.

To delete formatting using the undo buttons:

  1. To delete formatting, you can:

    • Click the Undo Last button on the ALM Common toolbar to delete the last bookmark and icon you applied.

    • Click the Undo All button on the ALM Common toolbar to delete all bookmarks and icons in the document.

  2. A message box opens. Click Yes to delete the bookmark, icon, and text in the document. Click No to delete the bookmark and icon, and leave the text in the document.

Delete formatting manually

You can delete any bookmark and icon manually. Note that deleting the icon or the text does not delete the bookmark. If your document contains extra bookmarks, an error occurs when you attempt to export to ALM.

To delete formatting manually:

  1. Manually delete the icon.

  2. Choose Insert > Bookmark. The Bookmark dialog box opens.

    Bookmark names contain the field name and an index number.

  3. Select the bookmark you want to delete and click Delete.
