Found {{docApp.searchResponse.totalResultsAvailable}} matches. Showing the top {{docApp.searchResponse.results ? docApp.searchResponse.results.length : 0}}. Use a more specific search to further narrow down the results.

There is no book with the ID "{{docApp.searchBookRescue.bid}}", so the book filter from this link was ignored and results from all books are shown.

Article Editor

The options provided under the Article Editor settings give control over the toolbar options that are available on the article editor to all of the knowledge contributors.

Having a standard set of formatting options across all articles ensures that there is a consistent look and feel to articles. The selection of options can be done to match or help conform to a style guide. An example of this might be to keep the Font Family turned off to make sure that all documents use the same font.

Article Editor Toolbar Options

Removing unused options can also help simplify the toolbar, making it easier for people to work with the article formatting.
