Word Songbook layout standards

Standards for Word format layout, for conversion to latex.

This is basically what I've been working to, based on a breakdown of the existing songs' structure. Any other songs laid out with this standard can be run through my process as well, to save additional work.

All styles are built-in Word styles, to avoid extra complexity. Save as Word 97-2003 .doc format for best portability. (Yes, tips and comments use 'heading' styles, but it's really quite arbitrary, and this makes things simpler for conversion to latex.)

Song element -> Word style

• Title -> Heading 1
• Author -> Heading 2
• Section -> Heading 3 (e.g. Verse 1, Chorus etc with lyrics/chords)
• Section reference -> Heading 4 (e.g. 'Chorus' or 'Repeat Verse 1' referring back to chords/lyrics already given)
• Tips -> Heading 5 (e.g. how to play)
• Comments -> Heading 6 (e.g. 'Did you know that this band invented raspberry ripple?')
• Lyrics -> Normal
• Chords are in-line with lyrics, following the standards used for Vish's human-readable text format (need documentation of these), e.g. [A] [Gm7] etc

Square brackets [ ] should not be used for anything else (such as comments etc)

Basic workflow: Word styles -> [export as filtered html] -> HTML markup -> [tidy/convert script] -> latex markup
