Maybe that was before the tool started combining lines of like sized text. If chapter titles are now on one line that could potentially mean title and author get combined to same line. Not good. I am leaving author 12pt. unless I see the other necessary.

Hi Sue and all, Early on as a volunteer, I was told that book title and authorâs name was supposed to be in 20 point bold, and hopefully selected together so that it would appear as one daisy navigation point. Iâve been doing it this way ever since.

No, Marty, just the title of the book on the title page is at 20 point bolded Sue S.

Gary, I believe the author's name is also supposed to be in 18 point, right?

From Carrie: Adding navigation to a book allows readers to jump to the chapters, find sections and parts easily, that sort of thing. The way we indicate parts, sections, and chapters is by the font size. The larger the font, the more important the line of text. There's a small section in the volunteer manual that gives some parameters: 4) Use these font sizes: For the: 20 point + BOLDING Book title 18 point + BOLDING Larger section headings (such as "Part I", or "Section 2") 16 point + BOLDING Headings for each section in the Front Matter, & Back Matter 16 point + BOLDING Chapter headings 14 point + BOLDING Chapter subheadings 12 point Text in the body of the book ----- Original Message ----- From: "Evan Reese" <mentat1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, November 21, 2012 11:24 AM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: was Navigation what do members prefer? > Since the standard font size is 12 point, then, unless the chapter has >subsections, its title can be in 14 point.
