Using Text Styles

[Ron Hagley]

I have a document with Headings on one line followed by a linespace then
on a new line a subheading followed by (on the same line ) a description

I wish to use TEXT STYLES as this pattern repeats many times, I have no
problem seting up the styles for the headings, but when I do the same
for the SUBHEADINGS the text style is applied to the WHOLE line
including the description . How can I avoid this other than by using
ordinary text formatting or placing the description on a new line.

This is an example of what I want to achieve

HEADING

SUB-HEADING. Here is a description

heading to be in ARIAL 16pt black italic
subheading to be ARIAL 14 pt black
remaining text to be TNR 12pt black

Many thanks for any help

Ron

Unfortunately, Publisher does not support Character Styles (which would
accomplish what you are looking for), only Paragraph Styles (which
accomplish what you are seeing).

Thanks Ed,
I understand your explanation. I think this is a quite fundamental
omission from the program. Seems strange when Front-Page does support
character AND paragraph styles.
Perhaps it will be in the next edition?
