Adding Content in Macromedia Dreamweaver

Assuming you know the bare basics of Dreamweaver, create a layer (select insert, select layer) and then perfom the following:

Step 1: Place Cursor in Layer

Once your layer is placed where you wish, and sized you are ready to start adding content. You can move your layer after the content has been added, but it is often easiest to see the document's overall image evolve as you work on it. Click your cursor inside the layer to prepare to add content.

Step 2: Type in Text

Essentially, just start typing. Layers can contain all of the same text and formatting that any other part of the HTML document can take. You can adjust your typefaces, colors, font sizes, font styles, add images, and configure background images and colors. Any adjustments you would make to your text in the document body, you can make to your text inside of a layer.
