- "Edit" launches a comfortable editor that allows you to make changes via buttons to change the font or insert links etc.
- "Edit source" launches a raw editor that allows you to see and edit the markup of the text. You need to know which character or tag does what. This requires some learning however it is sometimes easier for changes that involve changing the size of an image or its location or the flow of text.
