This is a quick stripped-down version of Stefan van den Akker's Power Format Pack add-on. It is designed to work with Anki 2.1, but it is only meant as a holdover until someone finds the time to port PFP in its entirety (or until similar features arrive in Anki itself). Please don't expect any further major additions like markdown support, etc.

Features
- Highlight text
- Insert code block
- Insert horizontal line
- Toggle unordered list
- Toggle ordered list
- Indent selection
- Outdent selection
- Alignment buttons
Changelog
Version 1.0.0 β 2023-11-02
Added
- Added support for Anki 23.10+
- Added button for inline
code formatting (thanks to Rai and lukkea for their contributions and to Juddd for the feature request!)
Changes
- Rewrote large parts of the codebase for better compatibility with future Anki releases
- Removed support for changing text background color. This has been built into Anki for a while now and nowadays works better than the add-on variant of the feature.
You can view all past releases here.
Configuration
The add-on offers some limited configuration capabilities, but they are not as fleshed out nor as user-friendly as PFP. You will have to use Anki 2.1's built-in config manager to update the config dictionary (Tools β Add-ons β Select Mini Format Pack β Click configure).
The properties you can modify include:
hotkey and tooltip of each action
- order of actions (by shifting the
{}-enclosed button definitions around)
- available actions (by deleting any of the
{}-enclosed button definitions)
Your changes will be applied once you restart your editor window (if running). Please do not change the 'name' property, as this is used to assign the corresponding button to the function it calls.

Help and Support
Please do not use reviews for bug reports or support requests. I don't get notified of your reviews, and properly troubleshooting an issue through them is nearly impossible. Instead, please either use the issue tracker (preferred), add-on support forums, or just message me at

Mini Format pack is based on Power Format Pack by Stefan van den Akker. All credit for the original idea and implementation goes to him. I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude for all of what he has done for the Anki community over the years. PFP was one of the projects that originally inspired me to go into add-on development. Thank you for that, Stefan!
