Text Formatting in brochure sections

[NickD]

Hi All

I'd like to be able to format text on a word-by-word basis in fragments of brochure pages, so that occasional words can be emphasised by underlining, being bold, italic etc. etc. Also it might be nice to change the font size or colour in the same way, just for occasional words.

Also bullet points and numbered lists (as in MS WORD) might be useful.

Can anything be embedded in the source text to do this, or is there some other way?

All advice gratefully received.

Regards

Nick

You can embed any html into description text. All you need to do is preface it with "!!<" and end it with ">!!" (without the quotes).

E.g.

Blah !!<<b>Blah</b>>!! Blah

Will give you the middle one bold. It can be a simple as that or you can have a whole page of stuff in there.

Thanks Norman - that works fine - I had been trying standard html things lime <b>...</b> and stuff like that but was unaware of the need for !!< and >!! - is this in the user guides anywhere, as I couldn't find it anywhere?

Anyway, much appreciated - I will now go away and wear out the "!", "<", and ">" keys on my keyboard.

It is in the help file under "Embedded HTML".

So it is - I missed it. Clearly I'm trying to do too much too quickly!
