Which document(s) did you try? And what do you mean by headings? And you 
did understand that OSIS markup doesn't yet convert to RTF or HTML in any 
of the front-ends yet, right?

FWIW, the CCEL documents are really ThML documents converted to OSIS, and
it shows in their content.  Just looking at one of them now, I'm noticing
some things that aren't invalid in the schema but probably would be if
they could have been (like subTypes on tags without types, non-standard
Bible references, etc.).  There are a lot of holdovers from the ThML
versions that don't make a ton of sense in OSIS unless you recognize that
they're ThML/HTML crammed into the OSIS mold.
