Robohelp - not recognizing FM styles

[adrianaharper]

I am using the TCS - I created 2 docs in FM, with paragraph styles (chaptertitle, heading1, heading2, heading3, etc). I imported one into RH by reference, and went to edit the styles (to map FM styles to RoboHelp) - no problem. Then I imported the second one into a separate RH project, by reference, went to edit styles- and RH will not recognize that there are any styles. I used the same template in FM for both, with the same exact styles. Does anyone know why RH is refusing to recognize the styles in the second document? Any ideas for fixes, what I can look for?? This is a bit off...
FM - 8.0p277
RH - 7.02.001

So I did a test- it is something in my FM doc. I created a new, simple FM doc and RH recognized the styles immediately upon import. Does anyone know what I should check/look for in the FM doc that isn't working?

Ok- a bit more information. I re-did my whole document, importing into Robohelp along the way to make sure it would work - it did. Then I created a TOC, edited the reference pages to adjust how it looked, imported into RH - and RH again refused to recognize that there were any styles in the document. HELP! I can't keep re-doing my documents!!

I think it might be related to the size of my FM doc. It seems to quit after a certain point, around 15KB or so. Has anyone else ever experienced this?

Before importing your FM document, assign fmstyles.css to the default RH topic. Then when you import the FH document and do the Style Mappings, it should be looking in fmstyles.css. If it is not, then select it in the Style window in the Available in drop-down list.

FYI: I did have to manually create some of the styles in my FM document.
