Use Format drop down to select text styles

When drafting and formatting text in Non-Profit Soapbox, you may find yourself wanting to treat different parts of text in different ways in order to liven up your pages. In addition to the standards - bold, italics, underline, etc - your soapbox site also comes with a number of pre-built options in the system to create various header's and other special text. These preset styles make it easy for you to quickly format text in a variety of ways, and will keep your pages looking consistent site-wide.
