Hello Jean

I will try an experiment.

Presently I am updating Impress Chapter 2. I will change heading colour to 
black, then submit for review. Yes or NO.

It will be very easy to change the colour if black is not approved.

It will be a few days before I have finished the Chapter 2 update.

Regards
Peter Schofield
