Freeway Reference: Working with Text

But maybe you don’t want such a big space between each line. In HTML, you can type a “soft return”, which will keep the formatting of

the previous line and not insert the customary spacing of a new paragraph (although you can adjust the space between paragraphs with

CSS, this is not supported in Freeway Express). If you hold the Shift key as you press Return, you will insert a “soft return” and your

result will be like this:

This is how it appears in the browser:

Spaces/Non-breaking spaces

In HTML multiple spaces are treated as a single space. If you want them to be recognized in HTML text, you must use non-breaking

spaces. To insert a non-breaking space in Freeway, hold the Alt key as you type a space.

Tabs

Tabs are not supported in Freeway, and pressing the Alt key will simply insert a space character. To set tabular information in columns,

create a table and use the rows and columns to organize the material. For more information on using tables, see Working with tables on

page 177.

Quotation marks

If you want to insert curly quotes (“”) instead of straight quotes ("") in your HTML text, you must type them manually—press Alt-[ on

the keyboard for the left quotation mark and Shift-Alt-[ for the right one. For single quotes (‘’), press Alt-] and Shift-Alt-].

Graphic text

Unlike many HTML-editing programs, Freeway offers the ability to export text as anti-aliased, web-ready graphics that remain fully

editable in Freeway. This reduces the need to use an image-editing program to create high-quality bitmap artwork for publishing on the

web.

Graphic text can be created in two ways:

• Create a graphic text box that will export as a graphic using the GIF

export format.

• Highlight a run of text and apply GIF paragraph or character formats

using the Text General panel of the Inspector palette.

When working with graphic text, a wider array of formatting options is

available than with HTML text, and the final appearance of the text is

guaranteed since it is exported as an image when the site is published.

Graphic text remains editable in Freeway.

Graphic text character attributes

You can apply character attributes such as font, size, text color, and spacing to graphic text with options in the Style menu and Inspector

palette (see Styling text on page 152, and Working with styles on page 167 (Freeway Pro only)). Because you are creating a graphic, not

exporting text, you can use a much wider range of attributes than those available using HTML.

However, the disadvantage of working with GIF text is that because you are creating graphics of the text, the GIF text is slower to

download and lacks certain user functions of HTML text, such as access and the ability to do text searches. (For a discussion of the

relative merits of HTML and GIF text, see page 80.)

Note: Custom styles are not supported in Freeway Express. Styles can still be

applied to graphic text using the

Style menu and the Inspector palette.
