A __________ is a collection of predefined formatting rules (fonts, sizes, colors) that ensures a document remains visually consistent throughout all its pages.
Style sheets (or 'Styles' in MS Word) allow you to define a specific look for 'Headings' or 'Body Text' once and apply it everywhere. If you decide to change the font of your headlines, you only have to update the style sheet once rather than manually changing every title in the document.
