It might be worth adding something that took me a while to figure out. None of the searches I processed listed this information, I figured it out through trial and error.

When using the centre option, everything following will center, even when /Center is used.

To realign left, < BR > (I can’t get the back tick to work) must be added (I’m sure < p > would work as well).

A couple other side notes:

  • dash ‘-‘ also produces bullet points and is easier to add than the alternative, *

  • if one wants space between headers, br needs to be used on the next line

  • to get text beside a photo, the image needs to be small enough to allow space; markdown doesn’t accept HTML code sizing. Either download or design a small enough variation, or edit.

  • emphasis and bold star * codes don’t work after punctuation, so the * must be placed before the period, question mark, or whatever.

  • more than one < sub > can be used to create even smaller text than the small text. one sub two subs three subs four subs

  • two lines ____ with italic font in between cad serve perfectly as block quote or links

  • larger headers can also be used for block quotes, or links.

  • headers and spacing can be applied differently than standard use, for creative and visual appealing formatting (especially for poets)



Mark, thank you for your list. There were a few things that I didn’t already know, and one partially behaviours I’ve been trying to get to work for me. Very handy.
