Format Tag

The Format tag specifies the characteristics of the text—for example, the typeface or font, whether the text is in boldface, italics, or underlined, and the text alignment.

Usage

Use the Format tag to specify the typeface and font size of the text in your template. The Format tag applies to the text that immediately follows it, or up until the next Format tag appears.

When an applet is rendered, the field alignment specification takes precedence over the align="TEXT ALIGNMENT" parameter of the Format tag.

Syntax

To use this tag, use the following syntax:

<TAG:Format face="FONT FACE" size="FONT SIZE" bold="BOLD" italic="ITALIC" underline="UNDERLINE" align="TEXT ALIGNMENT">
