I have been looking to write a more detailed blog post on custom Markup Styles, but basically when editing a page, go to the Format Text tab under Editing Tools and look for Markup Styles. To add a custom Markup Style, add custom css to your custom stylesheet similar to: DIV.ms-rteElement-PMCustom2 { -ms-name:"PM Custom 2"; } .ms-rteElement-PMCustom2 { font-size:2em; font-weight:normal; color: #f00; text-align: right; border: 1px #000 solid; } What this allows you to do is create a custom div tag, header tag, span tag, etc that can be automatically placed around a content block with custom styling. This is a very powerful tool for basic content markup. These markup Style blocks can be added into general content editors as well as Content editor web parts. I hope this helps. Eric Hi Khushi,

Could you use custom Markup Styles to accomplish what you are looking to add? I have been looking to write a more detailed blog post on custom Markup Styles, but basically when editing a page, go to the Format Text tab under Editing Tools and look for Markup Styles.

To add a custom Markup Style, add custom css to your custom stylesheet similar to:
DIV.ms-rteElement-PMCustom2
{
-ms-name:”PM Custom 2″;
}
.ms-rteElement-PMCustom2
{
font-size:2em;
font-weight:normal;
color: #f00;
text-align: right;
border: 1px #000 solid;
}

What this allows you to do is create a custom div tag, header tag, span tag, etc that can be automatically placed around a content block with custom styling. This is a very powerful tool for basic content markup.

These markup Style blocks can be added into general content editors as well as Content editor web parts.

I hope this helps.
