Hi David,
When I press insert f there is no font size difference between the
text I've chosen to be heading and the rest. The only difference is
JAWS says "outline level: body text" or "outline level: 1". But
because there's no actual difference in size and it doesn't appear as
a heading when I do insert f6, I am suspicious that I haven't actually
changed anything...
