Enter under Track Changes already recorded the new paragraph mark as an insertion, but accepting or rejecting only cleared that flag, so Reject All left the paragraphs split. Rejecting an inserted mark (or accepting a deleted one) now joins the paragraph with the next one again; Accept All, Reject All, Accept/Reject at the caret or over a selection, Next/Previous Change and the Reviewing Pane all see paragraph marks. Backspace at a paragraph start and Delete at a paragraph end now record a tracked deletion of the mark (or remove a mark the same author inserted) instead of only moving the caret; tracked deletions across paragraphs mark the paragraph marks too. DOCX reads and writes paragraph-mark revisions (w:ins / w:del in the mark's w:rPr), and a tracked mark is drawn in its author's colour when formatting marks are shown.

Typing parity with Word
What Word does when you type, observed black-box (same keystrokes typed into Word and
WordCraft, results read back paragraph by paragraph) and pinned by tests in
crates/engine/src/tests_typing.rs. When typing behaviour changes, change it here and in the
tests together.
Lists
| Keys | Word's result | Test |
|---|---|---|
* item Enter Enter text |
the second Enter ends the list; text is a Normal paragraph (no list indent left behind) |
enter_twice_after_a_list_item_ends_the_list, the_paragraph_after_a_list_is_normal_text |
| … Enter ×3, ×4 | each further Enter adds a blank Normal paragraph (never swallowed) | more_enters_after_a_list_make_blank_paragraphs |
| Enter on an empty nested item | moves it up one level; only a top-level empty item leaves the list | enter_on_an_empty_nested_item_moves_it_up_a_level_first |
* Enter (nothing typed) |
list cancelled, Normal paragraph | enter_right_after_starting_a_list_cancels_it |
| Tab / Shift+Tab at the start of an item | demote / promote | shift_tab_and_tab_change_list_levels |
| Backspace at the start of an item | 1st: number removed, indent kept; 2nd: Normal paragraph — not joined to the one above | backspace_at_the_start_of_an_item_removes_the_number_then_the_indent |
| Enter mid-item / at item start | splits the item / inserts an empty item above | enter_in_the_middle_or_at_the_start_of_an_item |
| Shift+Enter in an item | line break inside the same item | shift_enter_stays_inside_the_list_item |
* - 1. 1) a. a) A. i. I. + text |

Track Changes
| Keys | Word's result | Test |
|---|---|---|
| Enter (tracking on) | the new paragraph mark is a tracked insertion; Reject All joins the paragraphs again, Accept All keeps them | tracked_enter_and_backspace_track_the_paragraph_mark, tests::reject_all_removes_a_tracked_paragraph_break |
| Backspace at a paragraph start / Delete at a paragraph end (tracking on) | the paragraph mark is marked deleted (still shown); the caret moves before it (Backspace) or past it (Delete). Accept joins the paragraphs, Reject keeps them. A mark you inserted yourself is just removed | tracked_enter_and_backspace_track_the_paragraph_mark, tests::tracked_backspace_and_delete_mark_a_paragraph_break_deleted |
AutoCorrect and AutoFormat as you type
Applied when a word is finished by a space, punctuation or Enter (enter_finishes_a_word_for_autocorrect):
- First letter of a sentence (paragraph or list item start, after
. ! ?) is capitalised; not after abbreviations (e.g.,Dr., …) or initials (J.), and not for mixed-case words (iPhone) or single-letter labels (a.).teh→the,i→I,(c)→©,(tm)→™,wait...→wait…, smart quotes (autocorrect_as_you_type). 1/2 1/4 3/4→½ ¼ ¾;1st 22nd 13thget superscript suffixes (ordinals_become_superscript).word -- word→ en dash,word - word→ en dash,word--word→ em dash (dashes).- Web addresses become links; following text isn't linked (
web_addresses_become_links). - Enter after
---===***___~~~###→ a bottom border on the paragraph above (single, double, dotted, thick, wave, triple) (border_line_autoformat).
Layout
- No line break right after a slash (
and/or, URLs) unless the word can't fit a line (layout::tests::no_line_break_right_after_a_slash).
Known gaps
- Word's body font Aptos isn't installed outside Office; our substitute (Carlito, else Helvetica Neue) is wider, so lines wrap earlier than in Word. Needs a metric-matched open substitute.
:)inside a word (ok:)) isn't replaced (Word replaces it).- Not yet compared:

How to compare
- WordCraft: the headless
ui_shotexample (no window, no focus) withUI_SHOT_FULL=1prints the wholedocument.inspect; drive it withui.text/ui.keylines so keys take the real input path. - Word: the machine is shared. Prefer AppleScript that doesn't take focus (open, read
paragraphs, export PDF). Keystroke runs steal focus and race the person at the keyboard: keep
them short, read the document back to verify, and ask first. Screenshots of Word's window only,
