Formatting content
The formatting options interface depend on the Editor you are using.
Many editors are available as Open Source (through MamboForge) or commercial products.
Joomla! comes with 2 default editors:

- NO WYSIWYG: This editor lets you enter text and/or HTML code directly.
- TinyMCE: This editor lets edit in WYSIWYG or HTML mode (See specific Help).

NOTE: You may have multiple editors published. Choose one in Global Configuration to be the default. As of 4.5.3, each registered user with the adequate access may choose a preferred editor in her/his details parameters.
NOTE: It is not advised to use the Mambot tag { mospagebreak } in this description field.
