Titles of complete documents should follow the standard English rules for capitalization: all the words in the title are capitalized except prepositions, unless the preposition is the first word in the title. The title does include a period, although question marks and exclamation points can be used as in body text.
Headings and subheadings should be punctuated as normal sentences: the first word is capitalized, and the heading has a period, question mark, or other punctuation at the end.
Do not use more than two levels of headings: with SGML-Tools, that
means only the <sect>
and <sect1>
tags
are used.
If you need to use a third level of subheading, which will not appear
in the table of contents, do not use a heading that is set off from
the text; i.e., set the heading in italics or bold type as the first
sentence of the first paragraph of the sub-subsection. This
corresponds to the \paragraph*
and
\sub-paragraph*
LaTeX commands, which at the time of this
writing have no corresponding LinuxDoc DTD equivalent.
