How to Make Alternate Text Styles in Microsoft Word
Working in Microsoft Word? Shawn Jordison shows you how to spruce up your documents with alternate heading styles.
In this Microsoft Word how-to video, Shawn Jordison plays with alternate heading styles. Shawn creates a new Heading 2 in his document, then uses the Save As command to convert the file to PDF. This powerful feature ensures that your creative formatting in Word is carried over to Adobe Acrobat.
This video is a sneak peek of Shawn’s upcoming Design + Accessibility Summit 2025 session, Microsoft Word to Accessible PDF. To learn more about this event and see the full agenda, click here.
