Put 2 fonts in an outline heading?
Does anyone know how to put 2 different fonts in an
outline heading style in Word 2003? I would like to have my section headers look like this: SECTIONOne (with "SECTION" in Arial Narrow, regular weight and "One" in Arial Narrow, Bolded) I can only seem to apply one font to the entire section heading using the Styles and Formatting toolbar option. Any suggestions? Thanks! |

You could apply a character style (or just direct font formatting) to part
of the heading, but note that this direct formatting will be picked up by the TOC. -- Suzanne S.

Or, if the "SECTION" part is always the same in all headings, you could apply it
as "outline numbering". You'd delete the number and type "SECTION" in its place, and there is a button for choosing the font, color, size... which can be different from the paragraph style's font.

That works well to get the wording, but what I'm really
looking for is a way to have 2 different fonts in the same heading. Any suggestions there?

Brrzzzt... Crackle---
Theresa... I fear we have a small communications problem here. Both Suzanne and I assumed that with "section headers" you meant "chapter headings". Correct so far? Then all three ways that were mentioned should work. To apply character formatting to some text, you select it -- say "SECTION" in your example--, and apply the formatting -- say with "Format Font", or one of the buttons and dropdowns on the formatting toolbar, or by applying a character style from the "styles and formatting" task pane. You can discern character styles from other styles by the small ª to the right. It's not too difficult to define one of your own. With my method, the word "SECTION" would appear, properly formatted, each time you apply the paragraph style, and when you type the rest ("One") it appears automatically in the paragraph style's font.

Sorry, maybe I'm not explaining myself very well. Yes,=20
you are correct, by "section headers", I was talking about=20 chapters... I've modified the "Heading 1" built-in style to include=20 the chapter number by using the numbering format tab, and=20 I can add the word "Section" in front of it on the same=20 screen. Now, my text is the way I want it. So far, so=20 good.... (I want to use the Heading 1 style so that I can=20 number my chapters sequentially...but maybe that's my=20 problem?) Where I run into trouble is that I want the word "Section"=20 to be a different font than the chapter number. I've=20 tried selecting some of the text and applying a character=20 style to re-format (which, if I understand correctly was=20 your suggestion), but once it is formatted with=20 the "Heading 1" style, it won't allow you to apply the=20 style to only part of the text. Nor will it allow me to=20 insert text in front of the number that was automatically=20 inserted by selecting the "Heading 1" style. Maybe I'm just missing something very basic?? =20 -----Original Message----- Brrzzzt... Crackle--- Theresa... I fear we have a small communications problem here.

Klaus has just given you the answer: the "number" part of a numbered style
(which can be just text--it doesn't have to include a number) can be in a different font from the rest of the paragraph. -- Suzanne S.
