      When I have a block of text I would like to highlight some lines or some special commands in that text.
      For instance when I have a snippet of 20 lines of code, and want line 12-13 to be specially highlighted like a callout...
      we've tried to add

      {font}

      or macros, but they are not interpreted, but are printed literally.

            Agreed - I've tried using Confluence markup for bolding and the {color} macro. The code macro interprets these as text.
