Markdown is a special syntax that allows you to add formatting to plain text documents. This doesn’t mean any plain text reader can show you how the final result will be: it still needs to support Markdown.
To enable live Markdown formatting, select Modus > Markdown from the main menu.
When printing a document, you can apply the Markdown formatting by enabling the option Apply Markdown in the print panel. If you leave this option unchecked, the document will be printed as you see it in the editor.
You can see the supported Markdown features by opening the uFocus Introduction from the Help menu.
