Styles not getting applied in Printed Documentation in Robohelp 9

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.

Yes, all the topics do use the imported CSS.

I am a no-go with HTML so it will be helpful if you can suggest some other method.


OK. Locate in RoboHelp a topic where the heading is different in the printed document.

Click the HTML tab and select everything from the start of the topic and the end of the heading - </h1>

Post that here and we may be able to work it out from that.
