Microsoft Word Expert Needed to Fix Formatting in PhD Thesis

Here’s the clean Upwork-ready version without any mention of price. I need an experienced Microsoft Word specialist to fix the formatting in my 233-page PhD thesis. The thesis is still being written, so I do not need final submission formatting yet. I need the document cleaned up so I can continue writing in it over the next year without creating more formatting problems. Current problems include: * inconsistent body text * incorrect paragraph indents and spacing * too many Word styles * inconsistent headings and subheadings * section breaks * margins * headers and footers * page numbering * table of contents * Navigation Pane * tables and captions Some paragraphs show as “Normal” in Word but still have incorrect formatting. I need someone to: * clean up and simplify the Word styles * create consistent body text formatting * correctly set up Heading 1, Heading 2, Heading 3, etc. * fix paragraph indents and spacing * fix margins, section breaks, headers, footers, and page numbering * rebuild the automatic table of contents * make sure the Navigation Pane works correctly * keep tables, captions, quotations, citations, and italics intact * remove incorrect or unnecessary formatting * give me a short guide showing which styles to use as I continue writing I use Microsoft Word on a Mac. I do not need academic editing, proofreading, or rewriting. The thesis content must not be changed. Please apply only if you have strong experience with long Microsoft Word documents, Word styles, heading structures, automatic tables of contents, and thesis or dissertation formatting. Please briefly explain your experience with similar work and how you would approach fixing this document.
