Cursivas en Encabezados creados con variables de texto

Participant ,

Hola 

He creado una variable de texto para los encabezados con los capítulos de un libro y le he aplicado un estilo de párrafo. El problema es que uno de los capítulos lleva una palabra que debe ir en itálica (cursiva) pero el encabezado aparece sin esa cursiva ¿hay alguna forma de arreglar eso?

Hi @factoriaediciones Text variables are “seen” as a single character, so you can't apply a character style to a part of the variable. There is a workaround: you can convert a variable to text, then you will be able to aply italics on a part of the (former) variable.

Gracias: sí, conocía esa opción. Quería evitarla, pero veo que es imposible. Sería útil que Adobe mejorara esa herramienta para que admititera cursivas y versalitas. Mi solución ha sido crear una página maestra exclusiva para ese capítulo con la cabecera insertada manualmente.
