Formatting Your Text: Applying Approved Styles (Legacy)

Your Marketing team has created a number of pre-existing styles to help you quickly format your text and stay compliant with their branding guidelines. These can be found in the Format drop-down menu in the Toolbar.

Attempting to apply certain styles or fonts may not display your expected results, as they may be overridden by these pre-formatted styles.

Using the Format Menu

In the Format menu, you should see styles for Normal (paragraph text) and Heading 1 to Heading 6. 

Best Practices for Headings

• Use headings hierarchically by number (e.g., Heading 2 → Heading 3 → Heading 4), not by visual style. 

• Start each new section with a Heading 2, which should represent the main idea or topic of that section.

• Use Heading 3 for subpoints under a Heading 2, and Heading 4 for further detail beneath a Heading 3.

• Use headings for structuring content only—not to make text big or bold.

• Headings improve both SEO by helping search engines to better understand and index your page’s structure.

• Properly used headings also help to structure the contents of your web pages to help your users locate information more easily. 

Example 1: Categorical

Example 1 provides a basic structured outline of how Headings may be formatted.

Example 2: Prose

Example 2 illustrates how headings can work in a narrative format. 

• Heading 2: "Welcome to Veriday Wealth Management Group [...]" - Acts as our starting point—introducing our user to our page.
• Heading 3: "Achieve financial freedom [...]" - Relates to our Heading 2 by acting as a subtitle to our Heading 2. 
• Heading 4: Breaks into further details about the information presented in Heading 2 and Heading 3.
