Tag heading structure

Question

When I write a word document, I use the styles to mark Title, Heading 1, Heading 2, and Heading 3. I then use the adobe tab to convert it to a PDF. When I check the heading structure in PDF, it has marked the title as a paragraph, and the headings go Heading 1, 2, 3. Google searches tell me the title should be considered heading 1, and the headings 2, 3, 4 follow from that. However, I can't mark the title in word as Heading 1, as this would include the title in the contents page, which would be incorect.

How do I convert a word document to pdf that makes the title be marked as a title, or as a top heading?

Do you need to mark your styles as HTML styles — p, H1, H2, etc.?

I would think an effective way to get a Title marked as "Title" would be to use a style named "Title." Making that happen on the word document would cleanly translate a style as "Title" into your PDFs, which Google searches would interpret just fine.

Sometimes the solution could be that simple.

Hope this helps,

Randy
