Alan, After you double tap on headings, bookmarks and highlights, check out the upper right corner of the screen. You should find a heading level radio button. See if you can get it to heading level 5, then all your headings should show up. Got to run right now, more later, Richard

Well, at least some of the headings show up. I used heading 1 through heading 5 when marking up the docx file with the large majority being Heading 1 and heading 2 items. However, when opening the epub file in Voice Dream, only heading levels 1 and 2 are present. I'm scratching my head about that. The other odd thing is that I left the filename identical to the source docx file with the only difference being the extension of epub. For some reason, Voice Dream tagged the filename as unknown after importing it. Voice Dream doesn't seem to allow you to edit the name of the imported document. I'm assuming the name presented must be a special field in the epub document but I'm not sure about the best way to edit an epub document. Does Codex let you do that? I'm a big fan of the markup feature of Voice Dream Writer and also have a utility called Markdown Pad 2 that is great for adding headings using the pound sign in multiples for the desired heading level. Unfortunately, this needs to be done in a txt file and it's not going to be practical when going through multiple edit iterations where someone other than me is doing the editing. Microsoft Word would be fine if marking all the headings would consistently retain those levels when saving it as filtered html or converting it to epub using Codex. So far, I'm not getting that consistent treatment. And I've decided that trying to use the Word app itself is a fool's errand at least with respect to my particular document Which is about 27 pages long. The last time I tried opening the docx file in the Word app, my iPhone hung and I could feel it growing warmer in my hand while it was trying to open the file. I upgraded to the latest version of Word but this didn't improve things so I've given up on it. I'll come up with some sort of workaround during the editing phase and will probably use Markdown Pad 2 after the document is finalized to produce a nice navigable copy I can read and navigate using the rotor set to headings from within the Dropbox app. I've had the best success navigating documents on my iPhone that have been marked using the Markup rules. I wish it was more convenient to use in my situation with ongoing edits and shared files.

I don't think Voice Dream WRITER will work because it only reads txt files, though it can export to Word files. That is unless you and the others working on the document would do it in txt and use the mark up language Winston uses in writer. One Number Sign before a heading makes it heading level 1, two Number Signs converts to heading level 2, etc. Then, when it is time for the final version, assuming there is a final version, you could export it as Word or RTF. Good luck with the project, Richard On Jun 22, 2017, at 4:16 PM, Alan Lemly <wale...@gmail.com<mailto:wale...@gmail.com>> wrote: Many thanks, Richard. I have Codex installed on my computer so I'll give it a try. The downside is that the docx file is being edited every couple of weeks so I'll have to convert it multiple times. But that won't b the first or last workaround I have to implement.

If you do not know about Codex from James Scholes, check out this link. http://jscholes.net/how-to-remove-drm-from-kindle-books-with-codex-2/ The page focuses on removing DRM from Kindle books for personal use, but it will also convert Word documents to epub. I will double check, but I am pretty sure this will work.

The Word app itself doesn't seem to work with the rotor headings at least not the version of Word I have installed. I thought I would try Voice Dream Reader since it reads docx files and has the headings button in the far left of its bottomline menu. However, headings placed in Word documents don't seem to be recognized by Voice Dream so I'm wondering if anyone has successfully navigated headings in Voice Dream and if so, how were those headings placed there.
