This article contains information about the Content Converter. This is an external tool that can convert aNewSpring content to Word and vice versa. More information about the Content Converter can be found on this page.

Below you can find an overview of all tags that you can use in your Word file. For every tag you will find a small explanation about when to use them.
For some tags you can add an extra value by using a colon symbol (:). If you add an extra value, then place is directly after the colon symbol. It is not necessary to use a space.
Each tag should be placed in a separate paragraph without any formatting.
More information about how to use tags in Word can be found here.
