Insert Tag Reference

Insert tags are tags that represent variable pieces of text the user has entered into the various entry fields of the brief. They can be used in any style parse string; whenever the parser sees an insert tag, it will insert the value of the field the tag represents instead of the tag.

What insert tags are available depends on what parse string they are being used in; see below.
