Paragraph form tends to look a little cluttered.
Writing your headings in a slightly larger font size makes them stand out.
Just use tabs and spaces to align text along
the right-hand margin. No fancy tricks
needed! Turning on the “gridlines” in the
“View” tab can help with alignment.
Some variation in typeface is
great for emphasis, but avoid
using completely different fonts.
