text attachments - just save your document as text (.txt) (and get ready for a lot of formatting to disappear..sigh). As for italics, there's conventions in the rules for the contest that tell you how to specify them. When you have the text ready, go down to 'attach file' (you'll see it on the submission area, where you type responses), and use the 'browse' key to locate the file you're trying to upload. I think there's a limit of 200k on text files, but that's dozens of pages (time was, each page of text was worth about 3-4k each, but that was before Microsoft..;) hope this helps.
