Please see the discussion at http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=12603&postdays=0&postorder=asc&highlight=keyboard+font+color+colour&start=15

which leads to issue 34609 which has been considered duplicate, but I can't find what it purportedly duplicates.

        To make this issue (as it affects me) clearer:

In order to keep things straight when I am writing or editing, I make heavy use of keyboard shortcuts in Microsoft word, viz. Alt-R turns screen text red, Alt-B turns it blue, Alt-G turns it green, and so forth. This is for my use on the machine; when I print it on my monochrome laser printer it all looks black, which is fine.

I have not been able to find a way to make this happen in Open Office 2. The lack of equivalently convenient keyboard commands has driven me back to Word several times--even though I have been willing to learn to do other things Open Office's way.

Can you help? When this changes, I'll likely become an OO user for most of my work.

Thanks,
