I'd like to get some general opinions about paragraph styles.
I am a retired lawyer who led a local government law office. When I was working at that office, I tried in vain to get my employees to use paragraph styles. For them, styles were a bother to set up and maintain. I love using them, but then I'm as much a word processor junkie as I am an end-user.
Now, I teach a paralegal course in technology at my local university. I recently spent three weeks teaching styles to my students and they have resisted me all the way. My sense is that people just trying to get their work done see paragraph styles as an nuisance, not appreciating the amount of time they can save by investing a little at the beginning.
What about the rest of you. Do you use styles? Do you find that other less-techy types avoid them?
It makes me wonder if there is a way to make them more accessible to people less inclined to invest time in their technology as opposed to getting a task done.
