How to use the Text Editor Block

The Text Editor block is an inline content widget that lets you add, edit, and format rich text directly inside your documents. It’s designed to help you build clean, professional content quickly—perfect for writing descriptions, terms, and narrative sections in quotes and proposals created with your sales quoting software or proposal software.

Use it to compose headings, paragraphs, and mixed content without leaving the document editor, keeping your quote software workflows fast and consistent.

Open the document editor, insert a new block or widget, and choose the Text Editor block from the list. Once the block appears, click into it to begin typing, paste existing text, or import content from another source.

This simple insert-and-click flow makes it easy to add content to templates when building sales proposals with your sales proposal software or quote software.

Click inside the Text Editor block to reveal the inline formatting toolbar. From the toolbar you can apply styles such as bold, italic, underline, and strikethrough; change alignment and justification; insert images or tables; and use the paint tool to copy formatting between selections.

The toolbar keeps common formatting tools immediately accessible so you can style content for professional-looking quotes and proposals without switching contexts.

The Text Editor supports common text styles—bold, italic, underline, and strikethrough—along with alignment and justification controls. It also includes a paint tool to copy formatting and convenient insert options for images and tables.

These options give you enough control to produce clean, consistent outputs from your quote software or sales proposal software while keeping documents easy to edit and maintain.

Use the Text Editor’s insert menu on the formatting toolbar to add images, tables, or other supported media directly into the block. After inserting, use alignment and sizing controls to position media and ensure it fits the surrounding text.

Embedding visuals and tables helps make pricing and product details clearer in sales proposals and proposals created with your sales quoting software.

The paint tool copies formatting from one selection and applies it to another. Select the source text that has the desired style, activate the paint tool, then select the target text to apply the same styles—font weight, emphasis, alignment, and other formatting.

This is especially useful for enforcing consistent headings, callouts, and paragraph styles across multiple sections of a quote or proposal produced with your quote software.

Yes—you can type, paste, or import content directly into the Text Editor block. When pasting from other documents or web pages, review the pasted text and use the paint tool or formatting toolbar to normalize styles so your document remains consistent.

For complex imports, paste as plain text first and then reapply styles in the editor to avoid carrying over unwanted formatting from external sources.

Keep formatting consistent by using the same headings, paragraph spacing, and alignment across the document. Use the paint tool to replicate styles quickly, insert images and tables to clarify pricing, and preview the document to confirm layout and branding before sending.

When combined with QuoteCloud’s document generation features, the Text Editor helps you produce polished, on-brand proposals and quotes—making your sales quoting software and sales proposal software workflows faster and more reliable.
