Hello guys,

If I have a list with 4 items but in the middle of it there's an header (for example):

1.

2.

3.

"header"

4.

How do I tag it correctly so the header won't be read as a list item too?

THANX 🙂

Apply a different paragraph style to it, such as "List Heading", and designate that style to export as an H2 or other heading tag.

 

Note that you're attempting to create an oddly-tagged list: the standard does not allow for heading tags within lists, only <LI> list item tags and their subtags <Lbl> and <LBody>.

 

So after the heading, your PDF will start a new list, regardless of what number you force it to start with, such as 4 in your sample.

 

Your tag tree will appear like this (I'm skipping over the LBL and LBody subtags for clarity):

<L>

     <LI> 1.

     <LI> 2.

     <LI> 3.

<Hx>

<L>

     <LI> 4.

     <LI> 5.

     <LI> 6.
