A pull quote is a highlighted text snippet that stands out from your main content to create visual interest and emphasize key points. Here's how to create one in Squarespace's classic editor:

1. Create the Pull Quote Text

• Add a new text block with your quote
• Highlight the text and select a formatting option:
  • Version 7.1: Use paragraph formatting options
  • Version 7.0: Use header formats for better visibility

2. Position the Pull Quote

• Hover over the block edge until you see a hand icon
• Click and drag the block to your desired location
• Release when the gray guide line shows your preferred position

3. Style Your Pull Quote For Version 7.1:

• Open Site Styles
• Click Fonts to modify typography
• Click Colors to change color schemes
• Save changes

For Version 7.0:

• Return to Website panel
• Click Design, then Site Styles
• Modify style tweaks for your chosen format

Pro Tips:

• Use pull quotes for important information, interview highlights, or customer testimonials
• Consider SEO impact when using header formatting
• Any block type can be floated within text blocks
• Ensure the quote is in its own text block for better control

You can apply this same floating technique to other elements like images to create engaging text wrap effects throughout your content.
