Step -A headline of two or three lines with the top one flushed to the left and the last one to the right. Inverted Pyramid -Headline arranged in the form of an inverted pyramid. Hanging Indention -Headline flushed to the right of the page, except the first line. Kicker -Headline of two parts with one line in a smaller font size and in a different type family than the others. Overline -Headline with a smaller supporting line aligned to the middle at the top. Underline - Kicker in reverse.

New Pattern -Headlines that combine new patterns and artwork.
