We are updating the look and feel of our library guides. In the meantime, you may notice some formatting issues. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact libraryhelp@okstate.edu.
Do not rely solely on font formatting options to create title, headings, subheadings, etc.
Do not use invisible tables as a way to organize content on a page
Create programmatically-tagged document headers using Styles & Headings
Use one Heading 1 per document (i.e., the title)
Avoid using Title Style for title
Heading 2 delineates major section headings
Heading 3, 4, etc. are subsections
Use no more than 6 heading levels
Do not skip heading levels
Change Style formatting by formatting text as desired, highlight said text, right click on the Style in Style Pane, and select “Update to Match Selection”
Write concise headings that describe content within that section
Check headings and reading order using the Navigation Pane
