 The styling of pullquotes will vary across themes. Some will use different fonts, some will have borders, some will make the text bold (meaning any bold you add yourself won't be distinguishable from the\u00a0main text).

 The appearance of your pullquotes may also vary across the different formats: PDF, ebook and web. This is because each format has its own CSS for styling rules and page structure, so make sure you look at all the formats you will be using when creating your pullquotes, to be sure they look how you want them to.<\/li>\n \t
 Left- and right-aligned pullquotes work best next to long paragraphs, so the text wraps around them properly, without creating any gaps. You might need to experiment with where you place these in your chapter\u00a0to\u00a0figure out where they look best.<\/li>\n<\/ul>","rendered":"
