Some Other Notes

Max News is not designed to be a be-all, end-all of newsletter creation systems. No program can do that, as it would end up being another web publishing program.

So the pages that it creates are according to a standard, perhaps a simplistic standard. As you get familiar with Max News, you may find yourself wanting to do some things that aren't a part of the system.

For example, you may want to put sub-headings in articles and have those sub-headings be centered.  Or you may find other places where you want to center and/or adjust the appearance of the text on the page. Or have the text be a different color than black.

You can do quite a bit with the article and abstract templates. But you can also put HTML code into the articles themselves. Here's a few that can be used that are fairly simple...

Centering Text:
Put <center> before the text and </center> after the text.
Example:  <center>This is a centered sub-heading</center>

Bolding Text:
Put <b> before the text and </b> after the text.
Example:  <b>This text will be bold</b>

Italicizing Text:
Put <i before the text and </i> after the text.
Example:  <i>This text will be italicized</i>

Underlining Text:
Put <u> before the text and </u> after the text.
Example:  <u>This text will be Underlined</u>

The above can be used in combination. For example:
<center><b><i>This is a centered, bold, italicized sub-heading</i></b></center>

Color is a bit more complicated. In future releases of Max News, it may be easier to use color. For now, if you want to colorize a text line, you can play with:

<font color="blue">The text to color</font>

But now we're starting to get away from the purpose of Max News which is to make things simple. So we'll stop here.
