I have a document with some user variables with product names. I want the text in the variable to be bold.

So I have created a character tag which is called Bold and which bolds text no matter what size or color.

The character tag I have inserted in the definition of the variable like this:

... and works perfectly fine when publishing to print.

Publishing to HTML5, however, gives me this:

FrameMaker can't figure out how to handle the Bold tag and uses the print font settings and not the web font settings I have defined in the css when publishing to HTML5.

It seems like a bug to me. Can anybody help?

I managed to figure it out by studying the html output in a an editor. What I needed was a check mark in the "Clean up inline html styles".

FrameMaker inserted the code of the original formatting in the html output, but after the checkbox - it also removed the html formatting again. Next stop - how do I get yellow highlights on my index words in the html5 search? It ought to be there, but it isn't.
