+<p>Text objects can be used for a variety of purposes. Some examples throughout
+the Symbian platform and its standard applications include:</p>
+<ul>
+<li id="GUID-0FAFB638-FB94-5955-A879-B6297F4BA542"><p>word processor documents</p> <p>A

+<li id="GUID-2E076BB5-0501-55AA-BA18-6454D7DF1D83"><p>spreadsheet cells</p> <p>A
+spreadsheet contains a number of global text cells, each of which shares a
+common paragraph and character format layer. This enables the text to be maintained
+by text content and displayed using text views, but avoids duplicating format
+layers.</p> </li>
+<li id="GUID-EF8987E4-DE93-5531-867F-2318E696522A"><p>editor controls</p> <p>Editors
+for rich and global text provide the functionality needed for editing text
+objects, descriptors, and even text representations of floating point numbers
+etc.</p> </li>
+<li id="GUID-9B48DACD-A393-5796-9BE3-DD25812559AB"><p>agenda views</p> <p>The
+complex requirements of the day view in the agenda application are met by
+putting all text into a single rich text object, with appropriate formatting.
+This allows the powerful facilities of text views to format the display neatly,
+including such facilities as slot squashing, rounded highlights on bullets
+etc.</p> <p>When an individual entry is edited, its own data is edited in
+a separate rich text object. This is later pasted back into the view.</p> </li>
+<li id="GUID-4A0E4173-7F13-56E2-BE4A-1E0DEC5715C6"><p>things which can contain

+allows their entries to contain pictures.</p> </li>
+</ul>
+<p>It is very easy to use rich text in an application. The system provides
+enough flexibility to be tailored for specialist applications, such as the
+spreadsheets stringent memory economy, or the agenda's complex views.</p>
+<p>In the absence of an application engine, typically, two prerequisites for
