Why does Command + I not work in WPS Office?

1. Make sure the current window is an active WPS document editing window.
2. Check whether text is selected, or confirm that you want italics to apply to text you type next.
3. If another app or system setting is using the shortcut, click the Italic button on the Home tab instead.

Why does italic text look only slightly different?

1. Check whether the current font provides a clearly visible italic style.
2. Try switching to a common body font and apply italics again.
3. Compare the same text in regular and italic styles to confirm that the format has been applied.

Does italic formatting stay after I copy and paste text?

3. To keep the style, use regular paste or a paste option that preserves formatting.
