Change styles for ebook/print

I have my book pasted up in InDesign, and I can easily output to PDF or EPUB from the book window. Great. However, I'd like different styles to apply to each format. For example, I want a different first-line paragraph indent level for PDF than for EPUB, different fonts, etc.
I can think of several ways to address this problem, but none of them seems quite right:
1. Maintain two copies of the style source, with different styles defined in each. Swap it into the Book and out and synchronize as necessary.
2. Maintain two separate documents only for their styles, and use the Load Styles command to load styles into the style source when I want to switch formats.
3. Maintain a separate stylesheet for the EPUB that I apply after export. I'm afraid it might get out of sync with the book, though (if I define a new style in the book, I'll have to make sure that style appears in the CSS).
4. Scripting: Write a script to go through and modify the styles, either of the Book's style source or the EPUB's CSS.
How would you handle this? Is there a built-in feature to address what I'm trying to do, and I just don't know about it?
Indesign CS6.0.1, OS X 10.8.3.
Thanks very much,
Matthew

That makes sense. Would you specify an additional CSS file on EPUB export that overrides some of the directives in the InDesign-generated CSS, or write a new file to completely replace ID's in the EPUB?

  • Change Style for text (PE12)

    When I insert a text, i can change style just one time. It is not possible to change style for other text. I must stop the program and start up for changing style at each time I request to change style.
    Solution?

    Peru Bob,
    Thank you for linking to the Muvipix thread. Not sure what happened in PrE 12, but this Styles Bug looks pretty serious, as Styles allow a user to do so much, regarding attributes for Shapes and Text.

  • Changing Filename for CUTEPDF Printer

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how we can change the naming convention for filename in CUTEPDF SAVE dialog box?
    Our basis has set up device type 'PDF1' in SPAD and tie this to output device 'XX_PDF'. When we go to VA02 to issue output, if we set the print parameter output device 'XX_PDF', and print immediately, a pop up message box to save the PDF file will be displayed. The filename was defaulted <USER NAME>_<JOB SPOOL NAME>.
    Our requirement is to display sales order number instead of spool id.
    Is this possible to change via print program or any SAP setting we can do to change the naming convention of the PDF default file name?
    Kindly help.

    Hi @zipsoutlaw ,
    I see that you are having issues with connecting the mobile devices.  I would really like to be able to help you resolve this issue.
    Do you have the Envy 4500?  How Do I Find My Model Number or Product Number?
    Please clarify what I can help you with.
    Is the password that you need for the Wireless Direct or the Network Password to connect the mobile devices?
    I wasn't sure if you meant you can print from the computer by a USB connection or the network.
    Is the computer still setup on the wireless network?
    If you need to find the password on the computer to connect the mobile devices, you can get that information from here.
    I Can't Find the WEP or WPA Key or Password for My Wireless Network.
    I can send you a password reset for the printer, if that is what you need.
    Just let me know.
    Have a great day!
    Thank You.

  • ADF Faces - Change style for menuTab component

    How to change color for menuTab components (selected and enabled)?
    I do not want to create new style, all I need is just change some colors and fonts for default oracle style.
    I was able to change color for table, overridinf some styles in my css-file, but overriding
    <af_menuTabs_selected> and <af_menuTabs_enabled> did not work, because on generated html-page menuTab components do not use any styles. Is there any workaround to change color of that component?
    Thanks.

    public String commandButton_action() {
    ot_msg.setValue("Hello");
    AdfFacesContext.getCurrentInstance().addPartialTarget(ot_msg);
    The code above works fine but I nead also, in the method, to generate a excel file with JXLS librairie.
    The file can takes a long time to download and thus I want to change the value of outputText while the file is generating and not after.
    How can I do that ?
    Thanks

  • CSS - how do I remove/change styles for one image?

    Hi,
    In my CSS I have the following rule which styles all the images within the 'main_text' div with a border, background colour and padding:
    #main_text img{
        border: 1px solid #666;
        padding: 5px;
        background-color: #C0BEB6;
    However I have one image on one page where I want to remove this styling and I can't find a way of doing it.
    I've tried applying a class to the image I want to change:
    .exclaim {
        border-style: none;
        float: left;
        margin-right: 10px;
        padding: 0px;
    The .exclaim rule appears after '#main_text img' in the stylesheet.
    The float and margin both work but the border and padding are retained from the other selector.
    I know I could just have 2 classes and apply them as necessary but eventually I am likely to have quite a few images throughout the site that need the border and padding and just the one that doesn't.
    The site in question is here: http://www.elitejoiners-shopfitters.co.uk/
    The page that contains the image that doesn't need the border is the error page: http://www.elitejoiners-shopfitters.co.uk/error404.html
    Thanks
    Mick

    Will .exclaim always be inside #main_text?
    If so, increase the CSS "weight" of .exclaim by targetting it more specifically so that it trumps #main_text img:
    change
    .exclaim {
        border-style: none;
        float: left;
        margin-right: 10px;
        padding: 0px;
    to
    #main_text .exclaim {
        border-style: none;
        float: left;
        margin-right: 10px;
        padding: 0px;

  • Changing Styles for Numbering

    I am using RoboHelp HTML Version 8
    When I select the "create a numbered list" button. The number appears in a different font from the text. I selected Format/Styles/Normal, but I don't see how to change it.
    thanks

    Hi,
    With the Normal style, you set the font of the paragraph and not of the list. If you do not style the list, the browser will return to the default. The easiest things to do (in my opinion ) are:
    - Create a list style and apply it to eacht list: Right click | Bullets and Numbering | Custom | Pick your custom style.
    - If you always want a list to use a standard font, open your style sheet in an external editor and add the following code:
         OL, UL { font-family: Arial; }
         Change Arial to the name of the font you want to use.
    Note: If you use a font with spaces in the name, such as Courier New, place the name between quotes: font-family: "Courier New";
    Note: As an 'extra' you can add any other standard styling to all your lists by adding more styling between the brackets.

  • Is there a way to create file for ebooks and print?

    Hi folks,
    I have been looking around online for information on how (or even if it's possible) to set up book on InDesign that is suitable for producing a print-ready PDF and also being suitable for producing epub and/or mobi files for submission to Amazon, etc.
    So my first question is whether or not it's technically possible (and efficient) to do that. I thought it would be great to have each book (with all its subdocuments) set up once, and from that I can produce the PDF I sent to the printers, and also product ebook files.
    If it is possible, can anyone point me in the right direction for instruction (i.e. best practices, steps, etc.) for this?
    So far what I am turning up online is info on how to set up a book for ebook product OR the usual info on how to set up books for print production. But I've not yet found anything that covers doing both at once.
    Thank you

    This is not an easy task, but if you plan beforehand, I think it's feasible to mantain a "master" file, both for print and ePUB. It really depends on the complexity of your layout. For already laid out docs, this could be a real problem.
    Nonetheless, it's not a very efficient/scalable approach at all. There's no escape from heavily editing the ePUB XHTML code (and images) after export. Kindle files are another story, but you can generate them from your finished ePUB – with more code editing, of course.
    Some links/docs to get you started:

    I use lightroom with the soft proofing feature for my printing. I used to make a copy proof, but all of the sudden something changed, and even if I'm on the copy in the developing mode it prints the original. Also, If i chose a file that was already in light room to print, even though I have the chosen file up in the developing mode, it will instead print the most recent file that I added to lightroom. If found a way to work around these problems, (check make this the copy in the soft proofing, and copy my settings and delete and reload the old files) but it's a slight hassle and it didn't use to do this. Not sure why it changed. Could I have accidentally changed a setting?

  • Changing Track Style for Score

    I wrote a tenor part and set the track's Style to Bass. However, in the score, it renders it in Piano style (split treble/bass). I tried editing style in Layout, but that only lets me change the Piano Style, which is defined just fine for a piano. I don't want to mess up the Piano Style definitions; I want to change which style that Track uses. When I choose a Style for a Track, where is the "I mean it" button?

    Hi,
    "Automatic" you will only see if there is more than one track selected for display in the score editor. As soon as you select a single track, the Inspector should switch from Automatic to "Inst 1" (Or Inst x whatever) and you should see the piano or bass preset.
    So, select the single staff you want to change.
    Sorry if this isn't the answer, but for me, it always works. Try to break down the whole process in small steps:
    1. Open a fresh, new project, insert a single midi or software instrument track.
    2. Record some midi. Now
    3. Open Score Editor (CMD-3)
    4. Select the Staff you recorded by clicking (single click) on it - the lines should turn blue
    5.Go to the left of the window (inspector) - select the style from the pop-up-list (click-hold to bring up the style list). The style should stay how you've selected it.
    If not: Report back. I then suggest you go upstairs to the Logic Studio Forum where all the gurus are. Maybe they know the solution, because to me it sounds very strange (like bug).
    Cheers + good luck,

  • Picture Book theme - why has my book printed with text box outlines showing? and how do I change this for any future purchases? This did not occur with previous books.

    Why have borders appeared around the text boxes in the Picture Book theme and how do I change them for the future.  My latest book looks dreadful!

    Have you checked, if your book is really set to the "Photos" Theme? This looks like you may have used one of the "Travel" themes. These themes create borders around the text boxes. When you select a theme, the book title will say "Photos", even if the theme is a different one.
    For example, frames text boxes with the "travel" theme.
    Have you previewed your book, before printing it? Did the framed boxes already show in the preview?
