Numbering for Headings

Use the Heading Numbering dialog to add numbering to headings. The different levels in the dialog enable you to assign different headings as an outline structure for your document. In the default settings, the “Heading 1” paragraph style is assigned outline level 1. It is considered to be the top level in the document outline structure. The “Heading 2” paragraph style is assigned outline level 2, and so forth. You can also use the dialog to assign a custom paragraph style as a heading in the document structure.
