Gary:
Always I put the chapter headings, chapter number and title (even on the
next line) bolded and now in 16-point. Just makes sense to me with no
argument from Madeleine yet!

No idea. Sorry. I even wonder about point sizes for chapter heading as
well as title. "Chapter 1" I Buy A Dog. Does the whole thing, even if on
two separate lines have to be the same point size and bolded?
Sorry I can't be of help.

Gary,
I believe the author's name is also supposed to be in 18 point, right?

From Carrie:
Adding navigation to a book allows readers to jump to the chapters, find
sections
and parts easily, that sort of thing. The way we indicate parts, sections,
and chapters
is by the font size. The larger the font, the more important the line of
text. There's
a small section in the volunteer manual that gives some parameters:
4) Use these font sizes: For the:
20 point + BOLDING Book title
18 point + BOLDING Larger section headings
(such
as "Part I", or "Section 2")
16 point + BOLDING Headings for each
section in
the Front Matter, & Back Matter
16 point + BOLDING Chapter headings
14 point + BOLDING Chapter subheadings
12 point Text in the body
of
the book

> Since the standard font size is 12 point, then, unless the chapter has
subsections, its title can be in 14 point. As Madeleine mentioned here not
long ago, a two point differential is sufficient for the Daisy converter.
The chapter title need be in 16 point only if there are headings within the
chapter, and those headings should be in 14 point.
