Entering, Formatting, and Modifying Text

Writing in the rich text editor is similar to writing in desktop word processor text editors such as Microsoft Word or Open Office with one important difference. You use desktop word processors primarily to create printed content, limited by physical pages. You use the rich text editor to create text that you publish on PeopleSoft application pages and read using web browsers.

To enter text, move your cursor to the editing area and enter the data using your keyboard. You can also paste text into the area.

To format text, click the button before you begin entering text or highlight text and click the button for the format that you want.
