+.SH CUSTOM STYLES IN DOCX OUTPUT
+.PP
+By default, pandoc\[aq]s docx output applies a predefined set of styles
+for blocks such as paragraphs and block quotes, and uses largely default
+formatting (italics, bold) for inlines.
+This will work for most purposes, especially alongside a
+\f[C]reference.docx\f[] file.
+However, if you need to apply your own styles to blocks, or match a
+preexisting set of styles, pandoc allows you to define custom styles for
+blocks and text using \f[C]div\f[]s and \f[C]span\f[]s, respecitively.
+.PP
+If you define a \f[C]div\f[] or \f[C]span\f[] with the attribute
+\f[C]custom\-style\f[], pandoc will apply your specified style to the
+contained elements.
+So, for example,
+.IP
+.nf
+\f[C]
+<span\ custom\-style="Emphatically">Get\ out,</span>\ he\ said.
+\f[]
+.fi
+.PP
+would produce a docx file with "Get out," styled with character style
+\f[C]Emphatically\f[].
+Similarly,
+.IP
+.nf
+\f[C]
+Dickinson\ starts\ the\ poem\ simply:
+
+<div\ custom\-style="Poetry">
+|\ A\ Bird\ came\ down\ the\ Walk\-\-\-
+|\ He\ did\ not\ know\ I\ saw\-\-\-
+</div>
+\f[]
+.fi
+.PP
+would style the two contained lines with the \f[C]Poetry\f[] paragraph
+style.
+.PP
+If the styles are not yet in your reference.docx, they will be defined
+in the output file as inheriting from normal text.
+If they are already defined, pandoc will not alter the definition.
+.PP
+This feature allows for greatest customization in conjunction with
+pandoc filters.
+If you want all paragraphs after block quotes to be indented, you can
+write a filter to apply the styles necessary.
+If you want all italics to be transformed to the \f[C]Emphasis\f[]
+character style (perhaps to change their color), you can write a filter
+which will transform all italicized inlines to inlines within an
+\f[C]Emphasis\f[] custom\-style \f[C]span\f[].
 .SH CUSTOM WRITERS
 .PP
 Pandoc can be extended with custom writers written in lua.
