Marty:
Let's say the book says 
Chapter One
Day of the Dolphin

I have been putting that whole name, including Chapter one bolded and in 16
point, if there is another heading or 14 point if that is the only heading.
Am I incorrect?

Hi Deborah,
   Thanks for straightening me out on this point.  So if the word chapter is

not in the heading, how much trouble do you have knowing something is a 
chapter heading when you are just plain reading?

Hi Marty,

Actually many, if not most, of the books I scan don't use the word "chapter"
for chapter titles. And the only time I add the word "chapter" is if the
chapter title is only a number.
So... it's not always obvious what is a chapter title if it's not otherwise
indicated.
I do think, though,  that bolding and increasing the point size is probably
enough.

Deborah

Hi Cindy,
   Since every chapter actually says chapter, Why do we need anything more?
Also I HATE hearing star, star, star; it sounds so stupid when I know what's

coming--a new chapter!  HTH!

In posting a response to Madeleine's explanation, along with my
question about do I understand then  that if the chapter title is 16
point Bold and the text is 12  point regular, asterisks aren't
necessary, I forgot to ask what do members prefer? Given that the
space is deleted and the texts are squished together--asterisks or
nothing between chapter title and beginning of body. (Since in this
book I've begun with the asterisks, I 'll c ontinue,but I want to know
for he future. smile
