2-2.1.3.2 Titles. Each major paragraph must have a paragraph title in bold uppercase.
Titles are optional for subparagraphs, but should be applied consistently; i.e., if any
subparagraphs of a particular paragraph have titles, all subparagraphs in the same
sequence at that level must have titles. Present titles of subparagraphs in bold with
initial capital letters only. Indent paragraph title 10 character spaces from the left
margin. If text follows the title, end the title with a period and begin the paragraph text
on the same line. Place all other lines flush with the left margin.
Exception: If you use Microsoft Word's style function to generate a table of
contents automatically, lines with paragraph titles cannot contain additional text.
Consequently, for all numbered and titled paragraphs, place the paragraph text flush
with the left margin on the line below the paragraph title. For consistency, follow this rule
even for numbered and titled paragraphs that will not appear in the table of contents.
2-2.1.4 Headers. Each page of a UFC, including the cover and the title page, will
bear the UFC designation and publication number (short title) and the publication date
as marginal copy, right-justified, one-half inch from the top of the page. The short title
occupies the first line; the publication date (refer to paragraph 1-6) appears directly
beneath the short title.
2-2.1.5 Page Numbers. Center page numbers horizontally in the footer (bottom
marginal copy area) of each page.
2-2.1.5.1 Front Matter. Page numbers will not appear on the cover, title page, and
foreword. Beginning with the first page of the table of contents, number pages
consecutively with lowercase roman numerals.
2-2.1.5.2 Main text. Beginning with the first page of main text and continuing through
the last page of the document (including glossary, appendixes, and index), number
pages consecutively with Arabic numerals. Do not include chapter numbers in the page
numbers.
