How-to Index

How-to Guide

1. Apply chapter headings from the toolbar

Entry path: Edit button in the lower-right corner → Aa icon in the bottom toolbar → Text Type area

1. Open a smart document and tap the Edit button in the lower-right corner.
2. Tap the paragraph that you want to turn into a heading.
3. Tap the Aa icon in the bottom toolbar.
4. In the Text Type area, choose the heading level you want, from Heading 1 (H1) to Heading 6 (H6).

Success Criteria

• On-screen result: The selected paragraph is displayed with the chosen heading style.
• What you can do next: You can continue applying different heading levels to other paragraphs.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: Changing font size only instead of applying a heading style may not create a usable document hierarchy.
• Environment note: You need to enter editing mode before the bottom text toolbar appears.

2. Change the heading level of an existing paragraph

Entry path: Select the target paragraph → Aa icon → Text Type

1. Tap a paragraph that already has a heading style.
2. Open the Aa icon again from the bottom toolbar.
3. In Text Type, switch to a different heading level.
4. Return to the document body and confirm that the hierarchy display has updated.

Success Criteria

• On-screen result: The paragraph now uses the new heading level.
• What you can do next: You can continue adjusting other sections for a more consistent structure.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: If the target paragraph is not selected first, the style may be applied in the wrong place.
• Environment note: Review headings one by one to avoid mixing main headings and subheadings.

3. Organize document structure with heading levels

Entry path: Document paragraph → Aa icon → Text Type

1. Set the document title as H1 first.
2. Set major section titles as H2.
3. Set subsection content as H3 or lower heading levels.
4. Check whether any heading levels skip the intended hierarchy, then adjust them as needed.

Success Criteria

• On-screen result: The document shows a clear hierarchy from the main title to subsections.
• What you can do next: Later review and maintenance become easier because sections are easier to locate.

Tips While Using

• Common mistake: Using too many heading levels or skipping levels can reduce readability.
• Environment note: Using 2 to 3 common levels is often enough to keep structure clear.
