Question

Why are step numbers larger than text font?

I just upgraded from RH7 to RH9, I find that when I generate Webhelp, the autonumbers in steps are larger than the font used in the text. This only shows up in the generated output, not the source. Bulleted lists, on the other hand, look fine. Bullet size is commensurate with text font size.

Hi,

Check out http://www.grainge.org/pages/authoring/lists/lists.htm. A very good resource about lists and upgrading lists in RoboHelp 8 and 9.

Thanks, William. I didn't find anything on your pages that addresses the particular problem I am having. Frankly, I've never seen anything in RH about controlling the font size of the autonumbers in ordered lists.

Any other ideas are welcome. I'll keep looking for a way to fix this and will of course post anything I come up with.

Hi,

This particular problem probably comes from a missing setting. Try the following:

Say that your default font size is 10pt. Then add the following code to your style sheet:

li { font-size: 10pt; }

This will set all the bullets/numbering etc to 10pt. Amend the value to you default font size.

Greet,

Willam
