Creating a Heading
A Heading is used as a title or sub-title to indicate sections and subsections of a topic within a document. Heading levels are used to communicate hierarchical organization and relationship of the sections and sub-sections within a document. Thus a heading level 1 is used to represent the main topic and subsequent levels are used to denote sub-topics of the main topic.
Heading levels are parsed by software to organize documents in different ways. For example, In MS Word, Heading levels are used to generate “Table of Content” and in PDF file formats they are used to generate bookmarks. Addionally they are also recognized by screen readers helping the user navigate the document.
In MS Words Heading levels are created by formatting and applying Heading Styles.
