Answer 1

You could use an embedded or external stylesheet to format the h tag in any font with any attribute desired. I assume you create your HTML in a simple text editor and not a word processor. The file would have the .html extension and you open the completed page in a browser. I recommend Chrome because you can debug with it using the 'inspect' option on an object in the page. A good place to go for info on all of this is W3C Schools. HTML is separate from format, so the link is to CSS. https://www.w3schools.com/css/default.asp

The old way of styling HTML elements by having attributes and values in the tags is a deprecated methodology and should not be used. But I think it still will work as it did in 1999. Here is a reference to that kind of practice: https://www.w3schools.com/html/html_css.asp
