Extra spaces
When you add spaces in Design or Preview mode the editor automatically preserves any extra
spaces by converting them to non-breaking spaces (" " in HTML). It does this because in
HTML extra spaces are generally removed. Take this into account when you edit the template
in Source mode (i.e. in HTML) or add text via a script.
This how-to describes another way to maintain extra spaces in the text: Maintain extra spaces
in text.
Adding special characters
To add special characters:
1. Position the cursor where the character should be inserted.
2.
On the Insert menu, point to Special Characters click Symbols, Dashes and Spaces,
Arrows, or Geometric Shapes, and click one of the available special characters.
Adding page numbers
Page numbers can only be used in the Print context. See "Page numbers " on page479.
HTML element: p, h, li and others
When adding elements, such as text, images or a table, to the content of a template, you are
actually constructing an HTML file, which you can see and edit on the Source tab (see also:
"Editing HTML" on page613).
In HTML, text can be contained in many different elements: paragraphs, span elements, line
items and table cells, for example.
The HTML tag of a paragraph is <p>. The paragraph should be followed by a closing tag: </p>.
A line break looks like this in HTML: <br />.
Only the Source tab requires that you write HTML. In Design or Preview mode the editor adds
HTML tags as needed.
