Q: In Apple dictation, after having a text written in bold characters, how to return to standard characters using a voice command?

I like the dictation software quite a bit - but I'm really stuck with going back to normal characters after having a selection changed to bold characters. I tried "end bold", "no bold" and other things. There is no "normal" characters in my favourite font (Gotham), the standard font is called 'book'.


Does anybody have an answer here?

    Let's say that you just dictated the following:

     

    See Spot Run.

     

    1. “Select previous sentence”.
    2. “Bold that” will make the above sentence bold
    3. Speaking “Bold that” again will toggle the currently selected sentence back to normal text.
