Can you post the CSS just for the styles that are not working as designed?

You didn't attach the CSS. Although not listed as an excluded type, maybe it is.
You could just insert the relevant section in the body.

Hi,
What you're experiencing is not a bug. It's the consequense of incorrect list use. As peter said, please attach a html file and your css so we can have a look at it.
Also, we've discussed this problem at length, please search the RoboHelp forum so you'll get some more insight in what's causing this behaviour.
Greet,

Hi,
I have attached the CSS stylesheet and a HTML file. I beleive Peter was right, the PC i was using had a low RAM configuration. Now I am using my Laptop and I am able to generate a PDF and Word document. But Now I have a new Issue. My topics are duplicating, and only the 1st chapter is showing up and duplicating 3 times. I went through Peter's website and found the issue there. I tried the work around by attaching an inbuilt CSS template and it is still not working quite well. Any suggestions?

Eeeh,
Are we talking about the same thing here? My post was about lists not styling the way they should. I think you are mistaken with another discussion.
About your lists, I guess you're using the multi-level list styles in Robo8. According to your style sheet, all your lists should have the image smallbabyblue.jpg instead of numbers or bullits. See the code:
OL,
UL { <-- Applies to ordered lists and unordered lists
font-size: 10pt;
margin-left: 25px;
margin-top: 6px;
margin-bottom: 6px;
list-style: url(smallbabyblue.jpg); <-- lists will always use this image. When the image is not available the browsers will use the default: numbers for ordered lists and bullets for unordered lists.
font-family: ; <-- empty, please remove
}
This styling isn't overwritten in any list item. I'd suggest adding list style information to your multi level lists.

This CSS was modified recently. When I had posted the issue, I had only one level of listing, and it was not multi-level. I had just attached one bullet image, babyblue one to that bullet. And it as actually generating the HTML output differently. Thats when I had posted this message.
But now I have created 2 different type of Bullet listing, and I am not able to see my first level bullet which is like an arrow. All bullets are apprearing with the style of my second level bullet listing.

I see, Try removing the bullit-type form OL,UL. Your styling requires that you use list item styles.
You can set styles to the different levels of multi-level lists. Assign Li.1stLevel_Listing and Li.2ndLevel_Listing to the first and second level of your multi-level list, or define the list styles trough Robo's css editor.

I agree that this "enhancement" sucks. I upgraded and all my simple bullet lists are hosed - they show numbers instead of bullets.
Changing it back is not simple or intuitive at all. I wish we had never upgraded.

Please do take a moment and complete a Bug Report so that Adobe is advised. (Link is in my sig)

Our solution was to go back to RoboHelp 7.
