Figured out a solution…<div><br /></div><div>I defined a custom multilevel list style in the styles.docx Word doc with 5 levels (1, 1-1, –, 1-A, –). I then defined 5 paragraph styles New1 through New5, with only New1 having 12pt of space before it and all others having 0pts before and after. I also colored New2 &amp; 3 brown and New4 and 5 blue for clarity (color settings not in screenshot).</div><div><br /></div><div><img alt="Screen Shot 2023-01-17 at 2.16.05 PM.png" width="576px" height="416.285px" src="cid:5161c3ef-65d5-4be8-85ce-16864ffbcfa4" /></div><div><br /></div><div>Then, I linked the each level in the custom multilevel list to a style (see pink circle in bottom right).
