Yes, you are right. Word processors handle paragraph and character styles. Anything that is not styled is applied by direct formatting, manually, which is often bad practice. Fun fact: 11pt (for example) in libreoffice or M$ Word is not the same as 11pt in LaTeX. The reason is that TeX uses by default the classic point "pt", traditionally used in English-speaking countries. 12pt=1pc (pica). Word processors and DTP programs like InDesign or QuarkXpress use the postscript point, which is somewhat higher. In TeX the postscript point is called 'big point' (bp). There is also the didot point, which in TeX is called "dd" (12dd = 1 cicero). See: https://github.com/tweh/tex-units With the calc-units package you can easily convert between these TeX units in Elisp. For instance: (require 'calc-units) (calc-eval (math-convert-units (calc-eval "11texpt" 'raw) (calc-eval "texbp" 'raw))) Best regards, Juan Manuel
