Summary
You can create several paragraphs of text as a single multiline text (mtext)
object. With the built-in editor, you can format the text appearance, columns,
and boundaries.
After you specify the point for the opposite corner when the ribbon is active,
the Text Editor ribbon contextual tab displays. If the ribbon is not active, the
in-place text editor is displayed.
If you specify one of the other options, or if you enter -mtext at the Command
prompt, MTEXT bypasses the In-Place Text editor and displays additional
Command prompts.
