That was it exactly--staring me in the face the whole time. Insert a line break (shift-enter, ctrl-enter is a page break), then manually change fonts for the different sections of the header. I'll fix the H3s, then I think I'll set the sub-sections to H4 but set the outline level to "body text" so they won't show up on the TOC unless the user wants to change it.

I'll also set the title page to H1 or H2, since it came out poorly in the EPUB. I notice that the EPUB output strips almost all blank lines, except at the H3 titles. Are those manually entered carriage returns, or does that reflect the style spacing? If I stripped out all the blank lines in favor of style-specified spacing, how would that affect the EPUB? A more proper question might be whether HTML tags are generated for all formatting or not--will the hanging indents translate into HTML?

A final step for my purposes is to set the page style dimensions to the DR800 size, as full-screen mode may or may not be patched in.

This is all quite helpful.
