Header level adjustment is one of the normalizations applied by document formatting; this page describes its rules in detail.
IWE reads and understands nested structures based on headers. It identifies sub-header relationships. Markdown allows header structures where the nesting isn't clear, like:
## First Header
# Second HeaderIWE automatically fixes the header levels to ensure they're nested correctly. So the example above corrects to:
# First Header
# Second HeaderIWE can normalize the headers structure by dropping unnecessary header levels, for example:
# First header
### Second headerWill be normalized by dropping unnecessary levels and will look like:
# First header
## Second header
