Once you get the hang of it, writing long form content is very simple and with very little formatting you should be able to copy and paste content from your chosen writing tool. However there are a few nuances with writing long form content that we will look at here.

Formatting heading styles

To format a heading style, select the text you would like to make into a heading and click on the heading icon to choose the size.
