Re: Use of <H> tag in PDF

On a similar note, what do you do when you run out of headings?

I have been in situations where using an H1 for the document title meant I
ran out of heading numbers further down the document. (It was an in-depth
legal style document.) There I used H for the document title and H1s for
the major sections.

Conceptually, as a PDF is multi-page you could consider it more like a
website than a web page, but I'm still not sure what you'd do with the
document title.

I guess it's not terrible to do that, but are the better solutions?
