troubleshooting revision bars in PDFs

Post by kate_lopresti »

My team uses change bars in PDFs to call out new topics in a document.
When applied to subheadings (H2,H3), the revision bars tend to push section numbers into their titles (see image).
dita-ot.org states that the offset, placement and width attributes are not currently configurable. Is there another option we can use to fix this spacing?

Hello Kate,

It seems that the image didn't make it, could you reupload it?
Also could you indicate which PDF scenario you are using (XSL-FO or HTML5 & CSS)?
Finally which version of Oxygen are you running?

Regards,
Julien
