Confluence pages can be written in two ways:

  • using a simple markup language. The Quick Notation Guide is conveniently placed beside the edit screen. Click on the Full Notation Guide in your help window to view the entire list of formatting and other complex operations that Confluence's Notation permits, along with the markup detailing how to perform them.

    And / Or

  • using the Rich Text editor. Similar to editors available in standard text editing applications, the Rich Text editor allows you to enter content as you would in a WORD document and apply formatting by clicking icons on a toolbar.
NOTE

While the Rich Text editor permits all formatting options possible with Wiki markup, you will still need to use wiki markup for other more complex functions like macros.
