Richard,
Thanks for that further clarification about the heading markup. I think I'll write Winston and report my issue with the word finder screen.

One note about the heading mark up, in html code, heading level 1 is always a large font, I think either 18 or 24 point font. Then heading level 2 is slightly smaller and so on down to heading level 6. If you want heading level one you put just one number sign in front of the line of text. If you want heading level 2, you put 2 number signs, and so on. So, you have some control over how large the font is and the ability to set major headings at level 1 and sub headings at level 2, etc. I have no vision, so I can't comment on the word finder screen.

I exported my plain text document containing the five emails using Writer after first placing a pound/number sign on the first line of each email using Microsoft Word. Writer did recognize those pound/number signs for marking those lines as headings in my exported html document. When I opened this html document in Dropbox, I was able to easily swipe among the emails after placing my rotor on headings. I also liked the way Dropbox presented the exported html file with the heading lines in a larger font and the rest of it laid out as it would be when viewing with a word processor. I do have one final comment about Writer. When I execute the word finder function, the screen presentation appears to be messed up. A horizontal menu bar appears in the upper right corner of the screen with the options to select definitions, phonetic search, and meaning search but below this bar where the document is displayed, it only appears in a vertical strip down about the left third of the screen. The other half to two thirds of the vertical screen below the menu bar is blank. The hide word finder button which is used to close out of this function is about an inch from the top of my phone to the left of center of the screen because of this messed up presentation. This is mainly just an inconvenience as I don't use my limited vision to work with Writer but I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this same issue and the placement of the hide word finder button which was a bit of a mess the first time I encountered it. I am running Writer 1.3.0 which I don't think is the absolute latest version which I think was recently upgraded to support iOS 9. Since I'm still running iOS 8.3, I did not bother to upgrade to this latest version. Thanks again for all your help.

I've tried a few times to use the rotor set to headings and it doesn't seem to work. But, if you double tap on show outline, and use the cursor buttons within Writer, you can more easily navigate the document. You could export as html and put the file somewhere that you would be able to double tap on it so it opens in Safari where the rotor headings would work.

Anna had said I could place a number sign at the beginning of the first line of each of these messages and Writer would treat each of those lines as a level 1 heading. Two number signs would mark the line as a level 2 heading and so forth. I just want to ensure that I mark the number sign correctly and save the file so that when I open it with Writer or Dropbox or whatever, that the rotor headings function does what I want. Thanks for your help.

Writer only opens txt files. But, you can export to several different formats. Now, most of the time I have done the markup in Writer, so entering the number signs before the headings, etc. I find using a bluetooth keyboard because that is easier. Maybe it would be helpful if you explained more about what you are trying to accomplish. I may have missed a piece.

I think I already knew that Writer is only able to open plain text files but can you confirm this? Also, I assume I have to place those pound signs which mark a line as a heading using Writer itself. Doing that with Microsoft Word before saving the document as txt and opening it in Writer did not have the same effect. Do I simply key in the pound signs in Writer using the on screen keyboard number sign or is there a special tool to do this? Finally, does Writer only import and export txt files or can it do anything with any other file formats? Thanks so much for your help.

Then you would save the document as text and put a single number sign/hash symbol, whatever you want to call it, before any line that you wanted to be level 1, two at the beginning of any line you want to be level 2, etc. Voice dream Writer has commands to move to the next and prior headings.

Each email is pretty much just free-form text consisting primarily of the body of the message. What I want to do is mark the opening line of each of these messages so that when I save the file and open it on my iPhone 6 using the most appropriate app, I'll be able to put the rotor on headings and swipe to the first line of each message. Can anyone suggest the best way to go about doing this? I tried putting the Word document in Outline mode, marking each email first line as Level 1 with all the other lines in the document marked as body text. When I then saved this outlined document as a filtered html file, Dropbox told me there were no headings present when I tried using the rotor to swipe to them. So now I'm back at the drawing board and entertaining any suggestions to accomplish what I'm trying to do. How do other list members "mark up" Word documents to put headings in them which are accessible by the rotor? Thanks in advance for any help.
