Hierarchy Numbering (层次序号)
According to GB/T 9704-2012, the four-level hierarchy numbering system uses distinct formats at each level. The first level uses Chinese numerals with a pause (一、二、三、……). The second level uses full-width parentheses with Chinese numerals（（一）（二）（三）……). The third level uses Arabic numerals with an English period (1. 2. 3. ……)。 The fourth level uses full-width parentheses with Arabic numerals（（1）（2）（3）……). Note: Do NOT use Roman numerals (I, II, III) or other formats.
Font Specifications (字体规格)
Different document elements require specific fonts and sizes. The发文机关标志 uses small standard Song typeface in red. The 标题 uses small standard Song typeface in size 2. The 主送机关 uses Fang Song in size 3. The first level of 正文 uses Hei in size 3. The second level of 正文 uses Kai in size 3. The third and fourth levels of 正文 use Fang Song in size 3. The 发文字号 uses Fang Song in size 3. The 页码 uses Song in size 4.
Page Layout (页面设置)
Page layout follows strict specifications. Paper size is A4 (210mm × 297mm). Margins are top 37mm, bottom 35mm, left 28mm, right 26mm. Line spacing is fixed 28 pounds (approximately 0.99cm). Page number format is — 1 — (one dash + page number + one dash). Page number position is bottom center, odd pages on right, even pages on left.
Date Format (日期格式)
The correct format is 2024年3月15日. Common errors include 二〇二四年三月十五日 (Chinese era format), 2024.03.15 (dot notation), and 2024-03-15 (dash notation). Use the Chinese character 年月日 format.
Document Number Format (发文字号格式)
The correct format is 国发〔2024〕1号 using Chinese brackets. Common errors include 国发[2024]1号 with square brackets, 国发[2024]第1号 with the extra 第 character, and 国发（2024）1号 with parentheses instead of brackets. Use the Chinese bracket character 〔〕 without any additional characters.
