FM2019: Some text appearing red when saving ditamap to .fm (compostite document 2019)

Hi!

 

So I have ditamaps which I save as composite document 2019 and then further create a book from the created .fm file. However, everytime I do this, some bits of text, usually lists with bullets or numbering turn red. Sometimes it's not even the whole list, but oli some bullets/numbered bits. What could be the cause? It is very annoying and laborous to change the font colour on these bits every singe time I save ditamap as composite document. Is some setting on I haven't noticed? Is there some reference set on the text I haven't noticed? I have tried to look through the menus to see what is different with these bits in comparison to the text that stays black, but haven't found anything so far.

 

Thanks for any tips!

    Hi all,

    Sorry for late reply. The problem seems to be that those bits turning red were inside paragraph tags of a previous sentence. Whether this meant that they were beyond 3 level hierarchy/nesting, I am not sure but sounds like it. However, I moved the lists outside the paragraph tag > they moved up in the hierarchy > no more red. So thank you for all the advice!

    Yes, as Amitoj said, it is likely deeper nesting of list elements. Choose Structure > Structure View and look at the Structure View as you click on the red text. You will see the list item nesting there.

    That may be happening with the list styles are beyond 3 level hierarchy. You may have to change that in EDD and template to ensure those dont come Red but instead black.
