Thanks again everyone but SURELY there must be a way to make all my (29) chapters and headers h1 and h2 consistent WITHOUT having to figure out the HTML which is beyond me.

I have started a completely blank, totally new file (all 29 pages) and transferred all the 'body' of text but was sure to type in the chapters and headers and assign them the appropriate h1 or h2 - no chance of contamination.

However, there is no consistency when reviewed - Sigil just abuses them all - turning them into any size it wants and there is NO option within the Sigil program - unless I'm missing something. Even my father's old computer back in the last century had a 'change font' option; back in 1980 - or was it 1890?

I have even ignored the original 'word' file to make these changes but, even though my file still passes both Sigil validation checks AND the Smashwords test, it still tells me 'Congratulations my child - your file has passed our ePub check'. but then it has a note in 'dashboard' that says 'Unacceptable for our PREMIUM CATALOGUE' because it needs modification - different font sizes in the headers.'

Any easy way to fix without looking for html differences? Some suggestions received here were beyond me - If I found them I wouldn't know what to do with them anyway and, unfortunately, I am too busy at present spend hours learning to tame that HTML animal. Thanks, J
