The {tm} macro makes it easy to add customisable trademarks to your content...

Although you can insert a TM symbol directly in to your Wiki Markup 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 colour, fonts, etc.

The {tm} 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

This macro is used as shown below:

{tm}It should just work{tm}
