About This Feature

Overview

Chapter Title lets you assign heading levels from H1 to H6 to document paragraphs so your content has a clearer structure and can be recognized by the table of contents feature. After a heading level is applied, the paragraph is displayed with the matching heading style, which is useful for long documents, reports, proposals, and instructional content.

Core capabilities include:

  • Set a heading level from the floating toolbar.
  • Set a heading level from the top ribbon.
  • Adjust a heading level from the paragraph handle.
  • Insert a heading directly with slash commands.
