Styles and Cascading Style Sheets ??

Question

We have existing many procedures in RH5X that we have created
over the past two years. Our company has designed a new .css that
contains new styles. Is there anyway to easily and quickly apply
these new styles to our existing topics and projects?

Answer 1

Look at it this way. Your old style sheet had two styles
called black and white and the new one has red and green. How would
RoboHelp know that for black you want red and for white, you want
green?
I take it you cannot use the old style names to avoid this
problem. One solution is doing it manually. There is another but it
might not work so make sure you have a good backup, or two!
In your html you will find the styles look like this.
<p class="yourstylename">
You could do a multi file find and replace to change that to
<p class="yournewstylename">
With things like lists though it might not be perfect so it
wil require a lot of testing.
I am also curious that you have 75 RoboHelp licences to keep
procedures up to to date. It sounds like an expensive operation.
Just seems unusual. I would have expected these people to feed into
a smaller team but maybe there's more to it.
