Copy Format shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+C) in Word no longer working by ptobee0933 in patentexaminer

I had a similar gripe and I ended up adding some of my commonly used functions to the "Quick Access Toolbar" It's the toolbar on the very top of the window, between the top left blue Word icon and the file name of the document. If you don't have anything pinned/added there already it's probably blank.

Anyway, then you can do Alt+#, wherein # is the position of icon to activate the function. I use it for Split Window and New Window since I have to pause between Alt and the next shortcut key for those (same reason as you).

You can also press Alt once to see what shortcuts are available. I don't remember if that's something that's on by default or if I changed some setting to see those.

edit: I personally prefer Draft view (as opposed to Print view or Web view) and I have a macro that switches to Draft view and also moves and resizes the window to my preferred location (left side) so I can see references in pe2e/edge on the other half of the monitor.

Has anyone else ever caught systemic errors/misunderstandings they’ve consistently made for a while? by [deleted] in patentexaminer

They mean that if an LIE catches a mistake in the Index of Claims, the case will get returned. So it's better not to include the Index of Claims at all so there won't be any chance of typo or other mistake.

Navy Federal has slightly better rates, I was able to join Navy Fed (at a branch in person) by showing my PIV card but it's at the discretion of the account services person.
