Is there another way to achieve ths that I've missed please? Ideally in PSP 8, still my preferred version, but if not then perhaps in PSP 2018.

It's up to the font.

seems closer to what you want. If you highlight your text then you only need to hover over the font in the drop down.

Thanks. Yep, that would be one option, if I was happy to change to font. BTW, what font is that?

Re your last sentence, as you see, I get no display of my text with a newly chosen font when I hover.

EDIT: Just tried it in PSP 2018 and I see that's a neat new feature.

It also seems that Arial was one of the relatively few that did not place the brackets symmetrically! So I have more choice than I thought.

Yeah. Aerial and family are really the only fonts that do that. If you really want arial you could probably download a font editor
