HEADING BLOCK – H5: Teaser Text describing the topic, summarizing one or more of: 1) the unique attributes of the organization/space/service/equipment; 2) benefit to users; 3 typical outcomes.


Image set to “Medium”. This caption uses the paragraph block with text set to “Small”. You control the appearance but NOT the width. Use only for Full width images. This size font is a good format to include the source/credit for the image.
HEADING BLOCK – H4: Short, descriptive – no longer than two lines.
PARAGRAPH BLOCK: (Default size is 16 points = 22 pixel height)
Note: a keyboard hard “Return” will create a new paragraph block. Soft “Shift-Returns” will keep you in the same Paragraph Block
PARAGRAPH BLOCK: (Default size is 16 points = 22 pixel height)
We’ll use this as a default size for most text. Below are the standard options for text size available in the right-hand column under “Text Settings” with conversion to pixel heights (note: you could make this a “List Block”, but you only get the Default 16pt/22px size in a List Block, so we use a leading en-dash here
– Small = 13pt = 17 pixel height
– Normal (Default) = 16pt = 22 pixels
– Medium = 20pt = 26 pixel height
– Large = 36pt = 48 pixel height
– Huge = 48pt = 64 pixel height
To mix type sizes in a single paragraph you need to use the “Classic Paragraph Block.” Not discussed here.
HEADING BLOCK – H4: Another heading – use the H4 size for headings that run across the page

PARAGRAPH BLOCK:
The following blocks are samples of the most common “BLOCK” elements. You can duplicate them as needed (CMD-SHIFT-D), and move them up and down the page with the up and down “tents/arrows” in the upper left of this edit window. You can’t drag blocks around. Mouse ariund the perimeter of any block and you get the “circle+” sign
Here are two “Separator” blocks, the equivalent of “insert horizontal line.” This first is the “Default” size and default color (a light grey). The default color is too light for easy reading.
The second (above) is the “Wide Line” option and with the custom color choice set to #000000. use this combo. Note: they look to be different widths in this editing window, but I can’t tell the difference when in published view. There is no line thickness choice.
A column block has been selected and set to “three columns.” A standard Paragraph block has been inserted in the left column
The middle block has an “H5” heading inserted. Headings default to align vertically in the middle.
The right column starts with an “H6” heading followed by a separator…
…and then a Paragraph with the Text Setting at “Small” = 13pt/17px.
This is the left-hand column of a two-column row with the background color set to “DC Sky Blue” #a8e4fe
Once you’ve created a column, you can duplicate it separately from the right
This is the right-hand column with the background color set to “DC Sand” #f4eacf
Also, if you use soft returns as in this column, you can extend the column independently of the left column
