RH2019: New UI: Printed Documentation

Thank you so much Peter. 

I have voted for this.

Raised a feature request: https://tracker.adobe.com/#/view/RH-7680

Are you saying the header and footer will not get applied until and unless I have a Word template and then map it to the CSS styles?

Yes.

Also, is there a way to specify separate header and footer within RH or do I need to get this done through the Word template or manually change it in the Word output doc?

No and yes.

The above options are available while generating a PDF. Maybe RH could have included the same options for Word too.

They could have. 🙂

Moreover, in RH2017, we have the option to set separate header and footer for TOC, topics, Index and Glossary. Adobe must have retained these features in RH2019.

I know they were in 2017 but they are not in 2019.

I agree entirely this functionality is needed.

1. Yes you need to change it manually.
2. You have to create a Word template for headers and footers. I think you will then find the automapping of styles defaults to anything in that master page so you will have to change the mapping to your CSS styles. The headers and footers will be applied to all pages in the document.
