You can put the following variables within the <Dict> node of the EditorialConfig configuration file. For instructions, see Adding or overriding variables in your EditorialConfig.

Find the actual values of such variables in EditorialConfig item in EdAdmin4, the Application Configuration > Client Applications, searching for EditorialConfig. The data is common for all titles in the system.

Should you need to specify different values of variables for different typographies, look for instructions at the Typography-dependent overridable variables.

This variable handles insertion of hyperlinks in text.

Should you need to specify different values of this variable for different typographies, look for instructions at the Typography-dependent overridable variables.

Note: the value of the variable appears also in XSL stylesheets for Web export, therefore, if you change the value, the default stylesheets may stop to deliver.
