Cell & value formatting
In Inforiver, you can change the font color, style, size, and text alignment in a cell, or apply formatting effects. These are available in the 'Home' tab of the toolbar in the 'Style' and 'Alignment' sections.

Let's take a quick look at the style section in this video.
Style options in Inforiver
The default font is Inforiver Sans which has been specifically designed for use in financial and tabular reports. But you can change to a different font from the dropdown menu and change the default size.
Font size can also be changed by using the Increase/Decrease font size options.
Bold, Italics and Underline styles can be applied.
You can use the fill color option to apply background color to an entire column or column or even an individual cell.
And use the font color option to change the foreground color or the font color of the data values, row or column headings, and subheadings.

You can copy cell formatting using the 'Format painter' option just as in Excel. But Inforiver goes one step further. If you have applied formatting to a specific level like the Subcategory in the below example, you can apply it to all the other subcategories using the 'Apply format to level' option.

To remove custom borders, click on 'Reset' or select the 'No borders' option (the 1st icon).
