Publishing Hints.

There is nothing at all difficult about publishing a notice or history. Its really just simply typing it in. However, there are one or two things you need to keep in mind. For a start, the text you type in will always be continuous, even if you click on "enter"(its the program we use). So the following Hints are to help you make your publication look the way you want it to.

#1. To start a new line (as opposed to letting our program do it as each line gets full), you must type in <br> exactly like that at the end of the line where you want the break, and the line will "break" at that point and restart on the immediate next line. This is especially necessary if you are typing poetry for example, or reported speech.

If you just want a new paragraph break, all you need to do is double click on Enter.

#2. To create a Bold heading (or make some text bold), press Ctrl and B at the same time. This will then show on your screen as <B></B> and your cursor should be blinking in the middle. If it is not, move it there. Then simply type in the words you want to be bold.

Now, this is very important- when you have completed the words you want bold- you must move the cursor to the right of </B>. Until that is done, everything you carry on typing will stay bold.

It is possible to go back to some text you have already typed and make it bold. If you want to do this, select the words you want bold by running your cursor over the text you want bold while holding the click down (this will make the selected text black), press Ctrl and B which will put <B> and </B> around the words, and then move the cursor back to where you want to continue typing.

If this is a heading and you want it on a seperate line, enter it as in #1 above.

#3. To create a footnote, press Ctrl and N at the same time. This will show as <FOOTNOTE_1> <FOOTNOTE1>on your screen with your cursor blinking in the middle. Type in your footnote, and remember to move your cursor to the right of the second <FOOTNOTE> when you have finished the footnote to return you to the text you are typing. Each Footnote is numbered consecutively automatically. 

To view your footnotes when you are working on the text, you will find them in numerical order at the bottom of all you have typed. They can be deleted (the numbers automatically readjust), or edited.

If later, you wish to insert another footnote anywhere in your text, click your cursor at the point you want it and simply repeat #3. The numbers will automatically adjust.
