After you enable the CKEditor for SharePoint feature for a site collection or individual site, CKEditor will automatically replace the default rich text editor for various content types, including a blog post, or a calendar appointment. Furthermore you can also use CKEditor to edit a page that is built with SharePoint web parts. This option lets you add and format content inserted into your pages quickly and efficiently, by using the numerous CKEditor toolbar features.
To use the CKEditor Web Part, go to an existing web part page or create a new one using the More Options page from the Site Actions menu, and choose the Web Part Page type from the Pages and Sites section.
When the web part page is ready, go to its Site Actions menu, and choose the Edit Page option.
Adding the CKEditor Web Part

The All Web Parts list from the Add Web Parts page should contain an entry for CKEditor for SharePoint. After you select the CKEditor Web Part from the list, click the Add button.
The CKEditor Web Part will now be added to the page in the appropriate web part zone.
