Conforming to an existing style

I have been asked to help build a 10-20 page web site. The site will be an expansion of existing materials. Is there a way to copy, or recreate an existing web style within iWeb? There will be no collaboration within any single page - so small differences may be acceptable.

  • RHX5 showing non-existent style

    We imported two Word docs, using the same style sheet both in
    the doc and in RH. All the styles are fine in both docs, except for
    one style. Doc A shows a good style "InstructionIndent", but in Doc
    B, the RH style field shows that RH has seen the same style as
    "INSTRUCTION". The css has been applied to all chapters. The style
    looks fine in the original Word doc.
    1) Does the all caps font of INSTRUCTIONS mean something
    special in RH, such as a non-existent style?
    2) Do I need to change all of these styles manually, or is
    there an easier way?
    Thank you,
    Linda

    If you do not want this Business System to be a part of the New transport, i.e, you do not need this Business System in your transport, then my gut feel here is that one of your Config Scenarios still contines to use this Business System or,

  • Apply existing styles to paragraphs

    I have a small problem. How to apply existing styles. Different style to the first, second and third paragraph of the story/selection. I think it's simple, But I can not solve the problem. Thank you.

    That's easy enough:
    var mySelection = app.selection[0];
    var paraStyle1 = app.activeDocument.paragraphStyles.itemByName("style1");
    var paraStyle2 = app.activeDocument.paragraphStyles.itemByName("style2");
    // etc.
    mySelection.paragraphs[0].appliedParagraphStyle = paraStyle1;
    mySelection.paragraphs[1].appliedParagraphStyle = paraStyle2;
    // etc.

  • Add style to large block of text without affecting existing styles within that text

    Hello! First post here.
    I have a long document of text that mostly does not have text styles attached (this was a mistake). However, there is a large number of areas of styled text within.
    Is there a way to select all the text and apply a style to only the unstyled text without affecting the existing styles?
    Doing this by hand text block by text block would take a long long time.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    THX!

  • Load styles does not overwrite existing styles

    I'm using Illustrator CC 2014 on Win 7 operating system, upgrading a variety of Illustrator files from CS6 to CC format. But I've had this same problem back when I upgraded from CS5 to CS6, as well.
    I have a variety of character styles I use in all my publication artwork.
    I want to change a font used in the styles throughout all of the documents, so I change the styles in Template.ai,
    I open another document that has the same style names, where I want to overwrite those styles with new font settings saved in Template.ai
    I choose "Load Character Styles" or "Load All Styles", select the Template.ai, and the import appears to complete without any problems (no error messages).
    But if the Style Name is already existing in the document, it will not overwrite the existing style with the imported style settings (the way it does in InDesign). The styles just stay the same.
    I have to actually delete all the styles, then import the revised styles to get them to appear with the changed font. Which, of course, is a pain, because I don't want to have to reapply the style to all the different elements in each graph.
    Am I missing something here? Thanks -- Nancy

    Rename the style in your temp document (e.g.: put an "X" after this). Then import your template .ai style, then alt drag "your style" on top of "yourstyleX".

  • Question on Converting an existing style sheet to print.

    When attempting to do the conversion, I cannot get the 'link' button in MAC.  It's greyed out.  In the PC I can get the 'link' button, then do all of the proper media selections but when I go to save it I get a message about my new_styles.css being an HTML file, so it won't save it.
    Is there some process or settings I might be missing?  I can supply all the steps taken if necessary?

    1) Padding is only placed on the top and/or bottom of the block elements. The elements within these blocks have padding on their sides. This saves you from any "box model math". Keep in mind, if you add any side padding or border to the block itself, it will be added to the width you define to create the *total* width. You may also choose to remove the padding on the element in the block element and place a second block element within it with no width and the padding necessary for your design.
    2) No margin has been given to the columns since they are all floated. If you must add margin, avoid placing it on the side you're floating toward (for example: a right margin on a block set to float right). Many times, padding can be used instead. For blocks where this rule must be broken, you should add a "display:inline" declaration to the block element's rule to tame a bug where some versions of Internet Explorer double the margin.
    3) Since classes can be used multiple times in a document (and an element can also have multiple classes applied), the columns have been assigned class names instead of IDs. For example, two sidebar blocks could be stacked if necessary. These can very easily be changed to IDs if that's your preference, as long as you'll only be using them once per document.
    4) If you prefer your nav on the left instead of the right, simply float these columns the opposite direction (all left instead of all right) and they'll render in reverse order. There's no need to move the blocks around in the HTML source.

  • Apply new style for existing paragraph

    How to apply new style for existing paragraph
    I need to apply existing paragraph style "FEBL1" to bullet list (newstyle)

    May be I am not clear with your question.
    You want to apply any style to a paragraph, you can use grep function:
    app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null;        
    app.findGrepPreferences.findWhat = ".+";
    app.findGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = "FEBL1";   
    app.changeGrepPreferences.appliedParagraphStyle = "bullet list";   
    app.activeDocument.changeGrep();
    app.findGrepPreferences = app.changeGrepPreferences = null; 
    OR
    You want to add bullet list in your existing style "FEBL1", try the below code:
    var pstyles = app.activeDocument.paragraphStyles; 
    for(var i=0;i<pstyles.length;i++) 
        if(pstyles[i].name == "FEBL1")
            pstyles[i].bulletsAndNumberingListType = ListType.BULLET_LIST;

  • How to modify the names of existing Pages styles?

    In Pages 5.5.2 under Yosemite 10.10.2.
    1. How to modify the name of an existing style in both the Main styles list, and also in the Bullets & Lists styles list?
    2. How to delete unwanted styles from both styles lists?
    3. How to modify the default formulas for Bullets & Lists styles and make them stick for future documents?
    Appreciated.

    Click on it and you get the Formatting options for the selected text.
    If I had meant the Menus, I would have added that, but all the above is what you see when you have a document open in Pages 5.5.2.
    The > are clearly progressive steps. Except for the ">" which appears in the pop up menu, so I put it in quotes.
    I always assume that people on the forum will make some effort themselves, but can bring it down a notch if needed.

  • Questions about using Styles Window for formatting a book in Apple Works.

    Help says "You can create your own styles in any document type." Not clear on how to do that.
    I wish to have one Style or group of Styles associated with one document of say 500 pages for a book. Each chapter Heading. as a single column layout, is separated by Section Breaks from previous and following text in 2 column layout.
    Question 1. How do I make Styles window settings (Edit/Done) specific for this entire document? Can I edit settings in Styles window and have them remain specific and locked to this particular document? Or are the Styles window settings constant across all documents?
    Question 2. (If Styles window settings are not specific and locked to this document) Do I need to make a NEW Style for each purpose within the document, as in Book Heading, Book Subheading, Book Body, Book special paragraph style, and etc.
    Question 3. When importing multiple sections of the work (by copy and paste) from other AW documents how can I have the imported text follow the book’s Style settings (and vice versa how to keep tab settings that are specific in some areas). Sometimes the imported work refuses to conform to the Book document’s style say line spacing for instance.
    Thank you

    Hi Hilary,
    I haven't used styles enough to give definitive answers to your questions, but I'm sure others will join in and correct any errors in what follows.
    A "Style" is essentially a set of paragraph level format settings that can be collectively applied to a paragraph or contiguous set of paragraphs as a set, rather than having to apply each attribute individually. Once a style is applied to various parts of a document, changes made to the style specification will apply to every part of the document to which that style has been applied.
    AppleWorks also includes two other types of Styles—Outline styles (Diamond, Harvard and Legal), used to identify hierarchical levels of paragraphs, and Table styles, used to format tables.
    Question 1: From the Help article "Using Styles":
    You can copy the collection of all the styles available in a document and make them available in another document. This is called exporting and importing a stylesheet.
    I read this as saying that styles you create are specific to the document in which they are created, but may be exported to other documents. "Other documents" would includes documents saved as templates, which could be used to create the various sections of a book.
    Question 2:
    As the set of styles is specific to the document it is created in (or into which it is imported), you can probably leave "Book " off the names of the styles (but may decide that leaving it on makes it easier to know what the styles are for). You will need to use an existing style or create a new one for each purpose within the document.
    Question 3:
    Copy copies the text AND formatting of the selected material.
    Paste pastes the text AND formatting of the selected material.
    Paste also inserts the pasted material into the target document at the insertion point. All of the pasted material goes into the same Section. If the pasted material includes a section break, then a new section will be created in the target document.
    If you export the set of styles from the master document and apply them to the parts of the source document before transferring the material to the master document, I suspect the formatting will be carried over.
    Another possibility is to leave the source document with no formatting at all beyond paragraph breaks, and to apply the formatting (styles) after transferring the text.

    Barry

  • Styles are missing when publishing to ePub in RoboHelp 9

    Good afternoon,
    We are developing content for Android Tablets and have learned the customary format that we used is, well, unusable.
    A few posts suggest that ePub is really the only way to go with Android Tablet Help.
    http://blogs.adobe.com/techcomm/2010/04/robohelp_script_to_generate_epub_format_content_fo r_mobile_d.html

    So, I have published using the ePub format, but I have noticed the existing styles are ignored. In another post, it was noted to ensure that the tags are lower case. I edited the css file and made sure the tags are lower case, but this did not make any difference.
    Any suggestions for what may be happening here? My best guess is there is an issue with the CSS file.

    Hi,
    I ran some more tests and did some reading up, and I constantly come across the limitations of the ePub format/readers. From the ePub specification:
    The CSS-based style sheet constructs in this specification define required rendering functionality. To minimize the burden on Reading System developers and device manufacturers, not all CSS 2 properties are included. A few additional properties and values have been added to support page layout, headers, and footers. These, taken together, constitute the OPS CSS 2.0 required subset.
    An example about using colour in a style sheet:
    Current browsers support a host of keyword color names. XHTML 1.1 defines 16 named colors, as well as numeric values. OPS style sheets may use all CSS2 forms, however Reading Systems are not required to distinguish all these colors for rendering (otherwise monochrome devices would necessarily be non-conforming, which is not the intent).
    Fonts are supported in the standard (the standard says that font-family and other styling must be supported). As far as I can make out, you may choose between two things:
    Use generic font description: serif, sans-serif, monospace.
    Use font names, such as Arial. This however would require you to use an open type font which needs to be embedded in the ePub.
    See the following section in the specification: http://idpf.org/epub/20/spec/OPS_2.0.1_draft.htm#Section3.4
    The answer I can give you goes contains multiple facets:
    ePub does not support all the formatting you may be able to throw at it using style sheets. A list of all supported formatting is available in the specification.
    ePub readers can perhaps ignore styling even though the ePub format supports it.
    Some styling, such as specifying a font, may only work after manually optimizing the CSS through an external CSS editor.
    I haven't read the complete specification, so I'm not in the position to tell you what will always work, what will never work, etc. The following page has some screenshots of the same ePub on different readers: http://rufus.deuchler.net/2010/10/css-and-xhtml-tags-for-epub.html That illustrates the problem.
    Sorry I can't be more help, but it seems we will have to learn to live with formatting loss in ePub. It's not Robo's fault, but it's annoying none the less.
    Greet,
    Willam

  • I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    I am changing from Word to Pages. I have created my custom template with all my styles etc and that is what comes up when I go for a New Document. Fine. How do I get it to use the same Custom Template when I use Pages to open a Word document?

    The template is a document in itself, it is not applied to an existing document whether it is a Pages document or a Word document converted to a Pages document.
    You would need to either copy and paste content, using existing styles, or apply the styles to the converted Word document.
    You can Import the Styles from an existing document and those imported Styles can be used to override the current document's styles:
    Menu > Format > Import Styles
    The process is simplified if the styles use the same names, otherwise you will need to delete the style you don't want and replace it with the one that you do want when asked, then the substitution is pretty straightforward.

  • Pages 5.1 - Styles bug

    Hi everyone,
    I was very glad that Apple updated Pages.
    But I noticed a strange bug in 5.1 version.
    On one of my documents (a big one updated from a previous version of Pages) containing a bunch of styles, does not "wok as it should). Now, whent I scroll the (how do you say in english ?) style menu in the format section (see image) styles becomes blank.
    It seems this bug occurs with my Macbook pro retina only (not such problem with my iMac).
    Can somebody help ?
    When I come back to the menu, styles have reappeared but always the same scroll bug !
    Both images befor and after scrolling the menu :
    f
    Best regards.
    And forgive my clumsy english : I am french !

    Just to let you know, I have had the same problem since I started using Pages 5.0 on my MacMini.
    I reported that bug to Apple through their developer Bug Reporter some time back...
    This was my report:
    09-Dec-2013 10:33 PM
    Summary: When the number of paragraph styles becomes very high, the scrolling paragraph styles pane stops displaying text and becomes unusable. 
    Steps to Reproduce:
    1. Launch Pages 5.0 or 5.0.1
    2. Go to Format Inspector, Paragraph styles, and access the pop out paragraph styles selection pane.
    3. Click on the "+" to add a new style. Repeat this step until the text in the pop out paragraph styles selection pane disappears (approximately 23 to 47 times depending on the size of the styles added).  
    Actual Results: The text in the pop out paragraph styles selection pane disappears, rendering it unusable. 
    Version: Pages 5.0 and 5.0.1; OS X 10.9 (13A598) 
    Notes: It seems that triggering the error depends on the graphical height of  the pop out paragraph styles selection pane, not the actual number of existing styles.
    This was their response:
    Apple Developer Relations10-Dec-2013 07:37 PM
    Engineering has determined that your bug report is a duplicate of another issue and will be closed.
    I guess they have known about the problem for a while then. They must be busy with damage control over all the issues with Pages 5 that are causing greater negative feedback.
    The only way I found to work around the bug was eliminating styles from the drawer until the bug goes away. Not a nice fix, but it is one way to be able to continue working with the doc.

  • Can't get alternating rows style to work

    I have a spreadsheet in Numbers for iPad that I'm trying to style with alternating row colors. I don't even really care if its just gray and white, but I would like any form of alternating shades since I have a ton of data in one spreadsheet. It seems that no matter what I do on the settings, though, I can't get it to work. I tried changing the background of all the cells to no fill, then to white, then to gray...none of that seemed to make any difference. I also tried to select one of the pre existing styles and tried to apply that to my table and that also didn't seem to work. If anyone out there has any suggestions I would really appreciate it.
    Thanks

  • How to change paragraph style

    I have a text frame selected and it contains a story having various pargraph styles applied.
    I want to get name of each paragraph style applied in it and replace each with some other styles.
    But when I am applying style only one style is applied to whole text frame .(i.e all existing styles are replaced with a single style).
    Please help me , if there is any way.
    Thanks

    It was not a criticism of your design choices. You have misread my comments, I am simply warning you from long experience. We have no idea of what you do or don't know, most people who come here have little and it is safer to assume they have none.
    Creating a Textbox, which is randomly sized and placed and contains no text, is not dissimilar to having a Textbox already in the document with Placeholder text in it that you click on and it is replaced by whatever you type. If your client is quite familiar with Pages they must be familiar with using Placeholders and with duplicating and resizing objects as required. It is just a way of getting around your problem.
    Obviously you have done something else, or you would not be getting the results you have. I keep my version of Pages 5.5.3 as installed for testing, I don't know what you have done that is different and can't tell without having the file.
    If you want me to look, email me via my blue name. If not, that's fine too.
