Markdowns seem scary initially but think of them as a 'shortcut' to changing the style of your text.
Content

Any additional styling requires Custom CSS recommended for advanced authors only.

Strikethrough text by using two tildes (~) on either side of the sentence
Underline text
<u> ENTER YOUR TEXT HERE </u>
Change the font size by putting a hashtag (#) before the sentence.
Depending on how many you input, this will vary the size of the text.
You can also use the following to specify the size:
<p style="font-size: 3em;"> YOUR TEXT HERE </p>
Indent text by using a greater-than sign (>) before the sentence.
Depending on how many you put, this will vary the indentation.
Lists
Create dot style bullet points by using:
*
+
<li>
-
To create line style bullet points, use two dashes with no spaces (--).
Text Alignment
To left-align text:
<p align="left"> ENTER TEXT HERE </p>
To centre-align text:
<p align=“center"> ENTER TEXT HERE </p>
Some templates will automatically left align. Most templates centre align automatically.
You can’t combine alignment with font size markup.
Superscripts
Wrap the text you want to superscript like so:
Normal Text <sup>2TM</sup>
Line Breaks
Depending on the slide/template you're using, sometimes hitting 'return' on your keyboard isn't available, so you can get around this by adding: <br>
