Hi,
Firstly, my apologies for not being clear. When I wrote that post
it was after a VERY frustrating, fiddly, and
'do-things-over-15-times-with-absolutely-no-joy-at-all' kind-of-day!
Bill. I have written down your instructions & will follow them. I will
spend today pasting the chapters in. (The reason I got Word in the
first place is because I pasted all of them into a TextEdit document.
But now it won't open- I think Textedit will only accept documents of a
certain size, as I've had two large Textedit documents crash and
permanently refuse to open on a newish powerbook)
Daiya- More detail about the final product- Text in headers- I would
like Chapter title in the odd page headers, and book title on even
pages.
Body text= Times new Roman 14pt left indent 2cm, first line 1.27cm,
left, no space before, space after 6pt, widow, orphan control, single
spaced at the moment- will be double-spaced when i print. based on 'no
style' have clicked 'add to template' have not clicked 'automatically
update'- may as well click it and see what happens!
Heading 1=(the odd-page start to the book- i would like right-aligned
chapter titles on the odd pages, I suppose) body text + font Arial
16pt, kern, left indent none, right-aligned, space after 3pt, no widow,
orphan control, page break before, keep with next, keep lines together,
level one, tabs 7.5cm centred, 15cm right, this time have taken a guess
and clicked on 'add to template' & 'automatically update' -I'm not
sure whether I should do this for body text- I don't see why not,
but...?
Heading 2= (left-aligned book title on every even page, I suppose)
Heading one + font 14pt, left, level 2...I suppose I will have to
decrease the size of the chapter title font. I fiddled about with this
yesterday, and tried to increase the book title to 16pt, but it
wouldn't fit on one line. I suppose that 16pt is a bit intrusuve for a
chapter title font size anyway- will probably change it
A new problem I seem to be having is 'error-no text style selected',
when I try to enter the title in heading 2 as a field. I will try to
put the insertion point into the main text paragraph & select it as
heading 2 so I can 'Insert>field>links & references>style ref. If I
can do this, then I don't have to type the title every time! But no
luck yet!
If I could get some idiot-proof instructions on section breaks, I would
be laughing. But no joy so far. Microsoft should provide them, it's not
the responsibility of nice peeople like you. Thank you for your help.
