What is Rich Text Editor?

What does 'Rich Text Editor' mean?

Plain text is less exciting than rich text. Text formatting such as bold, italics, and underlining, as well as different fonts, font sizes, and coloured text, are all supported. Page formatting options, such as configurable page margins, line spacing, and tab widths, are available in rich text documents. Rich text documents are created by most word processors, including Microsoft Word, Lotus Word Pro, and AppleWorks. A web browser easy to use interface for editing rich text shows a "what-you-see-is-what-you-get" (WYSIWYG) editing area to the user is known as an online rich-text editor. The goal is to make it easier for users to communicate their formatting using proper HTML markup.
