When unchecked, Nisus Writer Pro replaces the exact match of upper and/or
lower case characters that appears in the Replace Expression.
Suppose you have the sentence
“I hope that the writer in you will blossom with Nisus Writer Pro.”
With Match Case checked (turned on), Nisus Writer Pro replaces both upper and
lowercase occurrences of the Find Expression.
“I hope that the writer in you will blossom with Nisus Writer Pro.”
With Match Case turned off and the word “writer” as a find expression, Nisus
Writer Pro would replace both instances of the word with a lowercase “w”.
“I hope that the writer in you will blossom with Nisus writer Pro.”
Replace Attributes
When checked, Nisus Writer Pro replaces the Replace Expression with the
attributes assigned from the Format menu and replaces it with the Replace
Expression and the attributes assigned to it from the Format menu.

. Leaving all other occurrences of “this” untouched, the Replace
expression matches the case and attributes already there, and has only one attribute associated
with it, which it adds: Bold.
