In summary, chapter numbers and titles serve as a guide for organizing and categorizing information within a larger body of work. They are typically determined by the author or publisher based on the content and structure of the work and there is no set format, but consistency is important. In most cases, they cannot be changed after publication and are most commonly used in longer works. Shorter works may not require chapter numbers and titles.

Hello,

1- How can I replace the chapter number in digits by a word? For example: Chapter 1 => Chapter One.

2- How can I place the chapter number and chapter title at the same line?
For example: Chapter One: Introduction.

Thanks in advance
