Hi Jill,

Yes, I enlarge the title to 18 and bold it.  This assumes that the book has
title, and chapters only.  If there is a book title, sections and chapters
within sections, I enlarge the title to 20, sections to 18, and chapters to
16, and for the sake of completeness, if there are sections within chapters
that are titled, I enlarge those to 14.  All this is assuming that the font
of the text in the book has been set at 12.

Hope that helps.

Mayrie

I thought I read on one of your emails that you enlarge the title page to
18; is that right?
