Thanks Melissa. That makes sense, but it does leave individual recipes
without a navigable bit. Is there such a thing as 13 pt. type so the recipe
titles can be differentiated slightly from the body of the text? Regards,
Kim.

Kim,
Here is what I do, and what was confirmed by Carrie yesterday.
Title of book 20 pt
title of parts 18 pt
title of chapters 16 pt
title of sections within chapters 14 pt
According to Carrie, there can only be 4 levels of headings, and the title
of the book should be the largest with the other 3 for sections within the
book. Unfortunately, this means that, in your example, sections, subsections
and recipes should all be at the same level, if you want them to be
navigable. Now, if there are no parts, but chapters with sections and
subsections, you could have chapters at 18, sections at 16 and subsections
at 14.
