1. has been possible in Word for ages (according to an article recently on the front page, it's been the main difference between Word and WordPerfect), and it's pretty much how you write documents of any size without going insane. I'm actually astonished how many people think that using Word means using direct formatting and eschewing styles.
- ultimape 12y agoI really wish people would use word's features - having the entire document marked up with appropriate headings makes its a breeze to go through and restyle a document. I find that while collaborating on things, I have to make a pass that involves purely going through and marking up heading text appropriately. ---- I've found the best compromise is to have a sort of technical prologue that discusses how to edit the document, or forcing people to work in something like markdown where the lack of font sizes force the use of a heading class notation. I prefer https://stackedit.io/editor https://stackedit.io/editor because it includes mathjax support which means you get access to a large swath of LaTeX style math tools.
