PDF-UA Naked Lists

Hi,

I need some help in creating lists for PDF-UA.

More to the point, my problem is to create a naked list, the second/third paragraph which does not have a bullet but belongs to the list element  that has a bullet.

The paragraph with the bullet is set with an automatic tag in InDesign.

How do I do to have the naked list element to belong to the list element that has a bullet, to be in the same <lbody> tag?

 

Thank you for helping!

Dan

You can apply CharStyle to the bullet - and then make it disappear - Size = 0.1pt, Color = [None], Horizontal Scale = 1%, some negative tracking, etc.

 

Add SPACE as a new bullet - before:

 

after:

Thank you for your quick answer. However, I am afraid this is not the answer; or I do not understand what you told me. But I believe I was not to explicit (english is not my first language, sorry).

The problem is not how it looks in InDesign (or PDF) but how it is tagged in the PDF because this must be a PDF-UA.

And I am trying to obtain this directly from InDesign, I do not like to edit the structure in the PDF. In what I did I made the second paragraph a list with a bullett with no printing color. I used 2 Paragraph Styles, one with bullet and one with no visible bullett.  But it is not what my client expects.

As an example, this is what my client replied to what I did send him: "All content that belongs to the same list item should be in the same <LBody>. Each paragraph of the list item can (or should be) a <P> inside the <LBody> of the same list item."

And he did send me this picture (my version and what he wanted)

In print it shoul look like this:

Any sugestions?

Thank you,

Dan
