How to edit a Drupal page

When you click on Edit either from the page edit tab or from using the Content management / Content menu list, you will open the administration area of that piece of content.  You can edit the page Title, Menu settings [see Adding to content to a menu], Body, Tags [if using], Alias, File attachments, Authoring information, Publishing options and more.  Every Drupal installation is different and may contain a different set of installed modules that add additional configuration settings.  Most editing will take place under the Body Area.  There is usually a rich-text editor installed that will allow you to use common features such as Bold, Italic, Alignment, Link, Insert.   These are button icons across the top of the body edit area. Each editor may have different options / buttons available.  Type in your content or make changes to the existing content.

DO NOT PASTE directly from Word or another web page.  This is the biggest mistake you can make and it will imbed hidden characters that will not look good when published.  [do I Copy and See How Paste in Drupal]  Make your changes and publish by selecting Save.  Also see How do I add an image in Drupal.
