Body
You use the editor to enter or edit text and insert items from the media library. The functionality of T4's editor is similar to other common word processing tools. As you create text, a shadow version in HTML (the code that runs the website) is created on the back end. This ensures that your text and links look like the rest of the Drake website.
NOTE: Be sure to do all your formatting inside of T4. If you cut and paste from Word or other software it will cause major formatting issues.
