What is the function of the Format Painter tool?

The Format Painter tool is designed to copy formatting from one element in a document to another seamlessly. This functionality is particularly useful when you want to maintain consistency in design and appearance without manually adjusting each formatting option, such as font type, size, color, bolding, italics, and other styles.

For example, if you have a paragraph formatted with a specific font style and you want another paragraph to have the same formatting, you can use the Format Painter to quickly transfer that formatting by simply clicking the tool and then selecting the destination text. This saves time and ensures that your document has a uniform look.

The other options pertain to different functions that do not involve formatting. Applying spelling corrections, checking for grammar errors, and highlighting text serve entirely distinct purposes, focusing on content accuracy and visibility rather than design consistency.
