Text formatting can help survey-takers pay more attention to certain aspects of the text. Programming surveys with typographical emphasis and line breaks enhances the survey-taking experience.

Adding Typographical Emphasis

1. Highlight any word or phrase in a question or answer space — a menu will appear above the word.
2. Click the appropriate icon to apply bold, italics, or underline to the highlighted text. You may apply more than one type of emphasis to a selection.

Adding Line Breaks

Line breaks can help the rhythm of a question by inserting pauses that occur naturally in language — for instance, after punctuation or at the end of a thought.

1. Place your cursor between text that you want to break up, and type Shift+Enter to add a line break.

⚠️ Note: You can add up to 5 line breaks in each Question text field, but line breaks are not available in answer or sub-item text.

For Instruction Text questions, an unlimited number of line breaks is allowed in the body of the question, and using the Enter key alone will add a line break.
