The following table provides a list of the default mask characters:
| # | Digits or white space |
| 9 | Digits only |
| A | Alpha-numeric values only |
| a | Alpha-numeric values or white space |
| @ | Letters only |
| & | Any printable character (ascii characters from 32 to 126 and 128 to 255) |
The following table provides a list of characters which are not mask characters but still affect the formatting of the text:
| > | When used as the first character of a mask, it converts all inputted characters to uppercase. When used elsewhere within the mask, it is considered as a literal. |
| < | When used as the first character of a mask, it converts all inputted characters to lowercase. When used elsewhere within the mask, it is considered as a literal. |
| \ | The character following this character will always be considered as a literal. For example, \9 will be the 9 literal instead of the digits mask character. |
