[Athen] Word for Mac headings question

[Susan Kelmer]

There should be options, just like in Word for Windows.  Save as, then click the options button, and make sure all the settings are correct. By default, those settings are all turned off, so you have to fix it.  It should remember the changes for future documents.

Subject: [Athen] Word for Mac headings question

Hi everyone,

We have been contacted by an instructor who is trying to make her documents accessible. She uses a Mac, and when she creates a document in Word on the Mac and then saves it as a PDF, the headings do not carry over. I recall this being discussed in the past but can’t recall if there is a fix. Any ideas are most welcome.

I found an article that suggested opening the Word document in Google Docs, going through the documents and ensuring all headings were there, and then downloading the document as a PDF. I haven’t tried this to see if it works, but would like a less complicated method, if there is one.

Thanks all.

Russell
