When I am generating printed documentation (both .docx and PDF), the corresponding Robohelp styles are not getting applied to the document. I am using RoboHelp 9 and Word 2007. I am using the Single Sourcing Layouts pod to generate the output. After the output is generated, some heading styles are not matching with the source Robohelp document. I have imported the style sheet from another RH 9 project and using in this project. Please help!

What are you specifying in the last page of the printed documentation wizard?

If you specifying a Word template, you will get the styles that are in that.

If you specify a different CSS to that used in the topics, you will get that CSS.

I am using the project's CSS style. The option I am choosing is "(None) - Use the Project's CSS Styles". This should apply the styles used in the RH project to be applied to the document.

Aprart from the style sheet that I have imported, there are 2 more styles sheets present. One is 'default.css' and the other is 'RHStyleMapping.css'. But I think that the other two styles are by default created when one creates a RH Project.


When you look in Topic Properties you will see all the CSS files that exist in the project. For this purpose we are only interested in what is in use. Do all the topics use the imported CSS?

You said some topics are not displaying correctly. Have you looked at the HTML for those headings to see if there is anything added inline?
