RH & CSS clarification needed
Hi all,
I'm new to RH and am just getting the hang of how it works. I'm currently trying to see how well RH will handle importing Word documents when it comes to mapping the word styles over to the CSS. Here are some observations, perhaps someone could let me know if I'm far off in left field.
1. It seems RD keeps 2 versions of every style in the default CSS, the original style (ie: P.FYI2ndLevelHeading) and a style that may be different or the same but named differently (ie: LI.kadov-P-CFYI2ndLevelHeading) why is this? It seems that when I change the style, it is not applied throughout all other topics until I force an update by reapplying it. It seems that at this point the two different styles are made the same. Am I way off?
2. If I only import a single word doc, I'm not able to select which css file I want the doc to use, instead a new css file is created specifcally for that file. Only when I import multiple files can I specify that I want them all to use the default.css file. Is there any way around this?
3. If I import two doc files at the same time, both with identical style names, but one of the styles in one file is slightly different (ie: a different color) I get strange results. What's the easiest way to force all the files that use the same CSS file to update with the new styles?
I apologize if the questions don't make much sense. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
