Formating Date in Quote Templates (4 Comments)

I am attempting to format the Date of the Quote Start and Quote End dates.  Currently it shows both a date and time.  My boss wants me to remove the time part from the DateTime.

To insert the Offer Start and Offer End I have used:

{{quotes.offer_start}} 
{{quotes.offer_end}} 

This gives me a Date of 5/1/2018 1:42 PM.  My goal is to format the date to remove the time.  So make it 5/1/2018.  

I have tried something like what is below without success.

{{date_format(quotes.offer_start, 'MM-DD-YYYY')}} 
{{date_format(quotes.offer_end, 'MM-DD-YYYY')}} 

Note that this format works when creating a report in the CRM.

Is it possible to format the text of a merged field?  If so, does anyone have any example syntax I could review?
