See below for the different formatting options:

Icon	Action	Description
	Paste as plain text	Use this function if you are pasting text that you want to remove the formatting from, or if you are pasting plain looking text from word processing software, as it can come with hidden styles that may impact the look of the content on the page.
	Text styling	There are eight options in the 'Style' menu: 'Normal paragraph' - this is regular paragraph text formatting. 'Heading - Main' - this is the largest heading option available to editors in the rich text editor. You should use this styling for the primary headings on the page. 'Heading - Sub' - this is the second largest heading option available to editors in the rich text editor. You should use this styling for the secondary headings on the page. 'Quote - Block' - this quote styling option will centre the quote on the page, and span the available width of the text area. 'Quote - Pull' - this quote styling option will pull the quote to the left side of the page. it will use a proportion of the text area, and the other paragraph text on the page will wrap around the quote. 'Summary text' - this styling is for the summary or introduction to some content. You should use this styling when introducing content, at the top of the rich text field. This summary text formatting is hardcoded where you have the 'Summary' or 'Description' field. The use of this 'Summary' styling should be carefully thought through and is a good option for providing summary text on cover pages. '(remove style)' - this option will remove any styling that you wish to from any text that you have highlighted.
