Ann: Here we go again. What does the daisy need? If 12-point is the text, would it not recognize a chapter heading at 14-point unless there is another "title" in the same chapter? Fourteen point is larger than 12 point?

Hi all, Folks, the operative words here *should* be what is consistent for the DAISY converter! You *must* put chapters in larger headings font in order for the DAISY converter to know that this is a heading, a DAISY element! Madeleine's mention of putting chapter titles into 14 point font is really confusing. they must be in 16 point or they will not be recognized as a DAISY element. I think this whole issue of the stars is getting everyone all out of kilter! It all started when we were talking about chapter titles that had just single numbers instead of having "chapter" with them. Then, it's morphed into this whole crazy malarkiface about blank lines. The blank lines are immaterial! You don't necessarily need them between chapter titles and the accompanying text, but what you do need, what you have to have, in fact, is the chapter titles in larger font! This is a prerequisite for making a book into DAISY format. Please, let's not have any confusion about chapter heading fonts! Believe me folks, I've made DAISY books in the past, and these font changes *must* be made in order for the DAISY converter to select the text that indicates a new or different DAISY element! Ann P.
