Improve the readability and usefulness of knowledge articles by formatting the article
text using the HTML editor.

The HTML editor available in knowledge articles uses the built-in TinyMCE editor. The text
formatting is preserved when the content is displayed on a portal.  
The HTML toolbar within the HTML editor contains an array of icons that enable you to edit and format the body text of your knowledge article. You can also use the HTML Editor to add images, links, audio, and video to the knowledge article.  
Hinweis:  
Your administrator can configure the HTML toolbar within the HTML editor. For more information, see [Customize TinyMCE
attributes](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=tinymce&version=australia&pubname=australia-platform-administration&ft:locale=en-US).

You can perform the following functions using the HTML editor:

* Spell check as you type in the Article body section of a knowledge article.The HTML
  editor automatically checks spelling as you type and underlines spelling and grammar
  mistakes in red.

* View the style applied to the selected text and the word count from the bottom pane of the HTML editor.
