First give post a Title. I have given a title as "Write Post Title here".
Now come to the writing area.
I have just typed "Post content here", your content of the article must be pasted here.
First type out full article in a text file (Yes, a text File and not a Word file). Then copy and paste it here in white area.
After pasting can apply the formatting which is similar to MS word 2003.
To explain the other areas of this page see the pics below.
