List style when importing MS Word (RH 2020.6.76)

Hi, Everyone.

 

When I import a MS Word doc, in the Word Import Settings dialog, there's no list style to map to, even though my CSS contains a half-dozen list styles. So I'm forced to choose "Use RoboHelp Default." And that gets imported as "p" style.

 

Similarly, there's also no hyperlink style to map to. 

 

The other major problem is inline margin styling from the MS Word file is getting imported (see screenshot), even though I leave un-selected "Import inline styles."

 

 

I've worked with Adobe TCS Support on these issues. But they recommend importing styles, which I don't want to do b/c I'm trying to keep the HTML clean.

 

Thank you!

    You can select the list and use the Clear Formatting icon in Content Properties, then apply a list style.

    Wonderful! That works!  Works for my other issue, too (inline margin styling getting imported).

     

    Thanks so much, Peter!
