Formatting

Header

For Section breaks: Background / Solution / Things to Remember / etc.

h1.

Subheader

For calling out a sub section or important title on a screen.

h2.

Bulleted Lists

Lists are all bulleted lists in the lessons. No use of numbered lists.

*

Screen Break

The content will be broken up by screens in the app. The screen break tag is there to indicate a screen change.

<hr/>

Multimedia Embedded

Insert the name of the multimedia between the formatting.

! !  i.e. !5.2.12.b.mp4!

Captions

In the final edition the text for a caption is added along side of the media file itself. However, to handle the initial translation we will be formatting it as the secondary formatting. The formatting around the the caption will have to be verified after the translation is done, so by going with this secondary translation initially we will ensure we get it done correctly.

!filename.png(caption)!

References

You can create references like this:

[1]

To supply the content of the reference, place it at the end of your document using a “fn” block signature:

fn1. Guardian Project, Blog Post

Slideshows

Group complete slideshows together using the slideshow formatting. Their captions must be included inside of this.
