I've got a file that uses Markdown (Twine to be specific). I am manually copying and pasting the text from it to LibreOffice.
Libreoffice Markdown Tutorial
Markdown simplifies the job by offering shortcuts to. What information should I include in a question in addition to OS and LibreOffice version? LibreOffice is a free and open source office suite, originally based on OpenOffice.org. LibreOffice is backed by The Document Foundation, a non-profit entity.
Now that the Text is in LibreOffice, I want to format the text (using Regular Expressions) based on certain sets of Characters before and after them. So ...
- All
**Any Text Here**
, I want the Text to be Bolded - All
_Any Text Here_
, I want the Text to Italicized - All
<%Any Script Here%>
, I want the Text to be in 'Courier New' Font
I have figured out the proper Regular Expressions I need to put in Find for the 3 above examples I mentioned:
**.+**
_.+_
<%.+%>
And I know how to use the Format button for the Replace field (for changing the Style and/r Font), but ...
What can I put in the Replace field in order to keep the Text?
- If I leave Replace empty, it just replaces each instance of the Regular Expression with no text.
- If I put in the same regular expression in Replace as I put in Find, it just literally replaces each instance of the Regular Expression with the text of the Regular Expression. So if I put
**.+**
in Replace, all Regular Expressions of**.+**
is now the literal text**.+**
, but formatted with what I set in Format (and not the text it had before).
I hope my question makes sense.

The Format button in Find and Replace-dialog applies to Find and not to Replace.
