About Format Painter for Gmail

Format Painter for Gmail copies formatting once and reapplies it in one click. Gmail lets you format an email, but it will not reuse that formatting. Format Painter fixes that: copy the look of any styled text and apply it to other text in seconds. No retyping, no restyling by hand. FREE PLAN: THE FULL PAINTER The free plan is the complete format painter: every style, all four ways to trigger it, and the settings that control what a paint carries. It includes 10 format applies per calendar month, and copying is always unlimited and never counted. The free plan is permanent, needs no account, and needs no card. Saved styles are the one Pro-only feature. PRO: UNLIMITED PLUS SAVED STYLES $5.99 per year, or $14.99 once for a lifetime license. Pro adds: - Unlimited applies. The monthly cap is removed. - Saved styles. Keep up to 50 named presets (for example a client header or a red callout) and apply them from the popup or the in-Gmail dropdown, synced across your devices by Chrome. - Export and import your saved styles. Pro works on up to 5 devices and comes with a 14-day, no-questions refund (email support@formatpainter.app). Full pricing is at https://formatpainter.app/pricing.html TEAMS One license key for your whole team: $3.99 per user per year, minimum 5 seats, deployed by IT or pasted once per person. Details at https://formatpainter.app/pricing.html HOW IT WORKS 1. Select text that already has the formatting you want. 2. Click the paintbrush in Gmail's compose toolbar. The look is now on the roller. 3. Select other text. It instantly matches. FOUR WAYS TO TRIGGER IT - The paintbrush button in Gmail's compose toolbar. - Right-click a selection: Copy Format and Apply Format. - Keyboard shortcuts: Alt+C to copy and Alt+V to apply (Option+C and Option+V on Mac), rebindable at chrome://extensions/shortcuts. - The Copy Format and Apply Format buttons in the extension popup. WHAT IT COPIES - Font family and size. - Bold, italic, underline, strikethrough. - Text color and highlight (background) color. - Bulleted and numbered lists, and alignment (optional). It removes formatting too: if the source is not underlined, the target loses its underline. A paint matches the source exactly. CHOOSE WHAT CARRIES Open the settings (the gear in the popup) to pick exactly which styles a paint carries. Text styles are on by default, so a paint changes how text looks without disturbing the layout you built. Lists and alignment are optional extras you can switch on. PRIVATE BY DESIGN The extension runs in your browser and only on mail.google.com. Your email content never leaves your device. On the free plan the extension sends nothing anywhere: no analytics, no tracking, no servers. If you buy Pro, the only thing it ever sends is your license key and a random installation ID (not linked to your Google account) to our license server, to confirm the license. Privacy policy: https://formatpainter.app/privacy.html SUPPORT Questions or bugs: email support@formatpainter.app, or use the "Report a bug or request a feature" link inside the extension. Purchases are processed by Polar as merchant of record, and every purchase has a 14-day refund. Gmail is a trademark of Google LLC. This extension is an independent project and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Google.
