hi, I am setting up a latex-like word style envoriment for my research
writting. however, one problem puzzled me for weeks, I don't know any
of you has good idea:

in latex, for \documentclass{book}, the Chapter is usually written in
two lines:

Chapter 1
Chapter Caption

the first line uses smaller font and contains a counter.

I want to make a style in MS word to make this effect, however, I can
only get this

Chapter 1 Chapter Caption

by changing the outline numbering of the Chapter style, but it can not
make them in two lines, and use different font sizes.

I also tried auto-text, but can't explicitly insert a "level 1"
counter from the outline numbering system.

I don't know if any of you give me some hint to do that.

thank you!

Hi Qianqian Fang

I would normally use two paragraph styles to achieve this.

The first line would be formatted using the built-in heading style Heading
1. Customize the font and the numbering scheme, and also set the 'next
style' to the style you use for the second line. Then when you press return
at the end of this (empty, numbered) paragraph, you will automatically get
the right style for the second line.

The second line would be formatted using another style (possibly another
heading style; see below), to set the correct font and spacing.

However, an alternative would be to use a single paragraph style, a hard
line break (shift-enter) to split onto two lines, and to make use of the
font formatting available on the number format to change the font of the
'Chapter 1' (or else use a character style to change the font of the second
line).

Word usually gives you several ways of achieving the same ends BUT you will
find your design choices in one place will affect your options elsewhere. So
before you commit to one method:

* If you need section numbering as well as chapter numbering, see Shauna
Kelly's site, especially
http://www.ShaunaKelly.com/word/numb...Numbering.html.

* If you need to show the chapter title and/or number in a header/footer,
check out the STYLEREF field and options.

* If you need an automatic table of contents, make sure you have a method of
achieving the format you need. If you use two paragraph styles, you will
probably want to include the second line style only, and fake the chapter
number (if you need it) by numbering the appropriate TOC style. If you use a
single style, you will need to look at TC fields or possibly formatting
switches.

* Make sure you have an acceptable way of inserting cross references to
chapters - you may find you want to use another of the built-in heading
styles for your second line, to make it easy to select the title as a cross
reference target.

Hope this helps

I would approach this in one of two ways:

1. If you're using outline-numbered headings other than the chapter title,
with legal numbering (that is, each subsequent heading picks up the
numbering of the previous level), make Chapter 1 Heading 1 (numbered) and
make the chapter title a different style. In the TOC, make the Chapter Title
style Level 1 and omit Heading 1. Format TOC 1 to have numbering.

2. If you don't need legal-style outline numbering, make a separate numbered
(Body Text-level) style for the chapter number and use Heading 1 for the
chapter title. The chapter titles will be picked up by the TOC automatically
(and you can number TOC 1) and the chapter numbers will not.

If you don't want to use autonumbering for your chapter number style but
rather want to include a "counter," use a SEQ field.
