HTML editor settings
Location: Administration > Appearance > HTML Editor
The HTML editor is a word-processor interface for formatting text and inserting images, tables, links and smilies, which teachers generally find useful.
You can customize the HTML editor and change the background colour, fonts and font sizes, and hide selected buttons. If you want the HTML editor to have a spell-check button, you need to install aspell 0.50 or later on your server, and enter the correct path to access the aspell binary in Administration > Server > System paths.
Fonts
A font must be available for the user's browser and installed on each user's machine in order to work. For example, a font containing hieroglyphs could be added to the HTML editor and all members of the course would need to download that font on their individual computers to see and use it.
Font lists
Add the font name in both columns. For example in the first blank row, add "Garmond" to the first column and "garmond' to the second column. The HTML editor will now offer Garmond as a font choice.
