RoboHelp 2015 Paragraph Style in Design doesn't match in WebHelp output

I created a paragraph style that indents text 18pt from the Left.

This allows the text to line up with the text from a Bullet List or Number List (that I also created). (Red line added for effect only)

However, after generating WebHelp output, that indentation doesn't stay. The text justifies to the full left. (Red line added for effect only)

How do I get the WebHelp output to match to the Design in RoboHelp?

Indenting lists is always tricky as different browsers will render the same

list in different ways.

See Lists on my site.

It dawned on me after I stopped trying to figure it out that I could make another Paragraph Style and Numbered List that both mimic the original ones but where the Font Color of the Numbered List is White so the number doesn't actually show up. That resolved my issue.

Sorry, I misread your problem. The easier solution is after a numbered paragraph use Shift Enter. You will get the same indentation without the numbering.
