The Rich Text add-on in GoMixApp is the text box of the editor. You use it for titles, paragraphs and any other text on your page. This guide edits the rich text of a real digital business card and shows its toolbar.

How to use the Rich Text add-on

Step 1: Find the Rich Text add-on

The Rich Text icon sits in the left toolbar of the editor (1). Hover over the icon to see its name, Rich Text. To place a text box exactly, you can also enter an exact position.
