Shortcuts in Word 2013

Mathematical and other texts require a large number of special symbols that are not present on the keyboard.
To simplify this task, you can assign a shortcut for frequently used symbol.
Adding commands to the Quick Access Toolbar
Suppose you'd like to add a couple more commands to the Quick Access toolbar. Also, say you're a big
fan of AutoText, which lets you assign long strings of text to a couple keystrokes. You can add the
AutoText button to the Quick Access Toolbar, so you can quickly create and use AutoText
to collect frequently used commands.

If you're a fan of the way AutoText worked in earlier versions of Word, you may be dismayed to see it
buried as one of the Galleries in the Building Blocks Organizer. Fortunately, it's as easy as
ever to create and retrieve an AutoText entry using the F3 key.
