The Trademarks macro makes it easy to add customizable trademarks to content.

Although you can insert a TM symbol directly using the Page Editor, there are some issues to be aware of:

  • The TM symbol is often difficult to read if you are using a small font

  • The TM symbol is not supported by all browsers, operating systems and fonts

  • If you hyperlink a trademark, the TM symbol often gets and underline making it look odd

  • It’s not possible to globally brand all trademarks to use the same text color, fonts, etc.

The Trademarks macro allows you to overcome all these issues:

  • It’s clearly readable with more fonts and sizes

  • It works on even the oldest browsers

  • The TM symbol never gets underlined

  • Trademarks can be branded using style sheets
