Re: Add topic file path to footer in PDF > CSS
Not quite easy, but possible: 1. If you do not have yet a publishing template in place, you can start by creating a publishing template stub, that you will use in your transformation scenario. For this, go to the https://styles.oxygenxml.com and press the 'Download' buton. Save the 'styles.zip' arch...

Re: One Item Bolded Bolds Entire Paragraph
Hello Pat,
We plan to release v 25 this autumn. Until then you will have to use the font file referred from the CSS. Let us know if you encounter other problems.
Best regards,

Re: Footnotes Related to Tables in PDF Documents
Hello Pat, I changed the stylesheet to: 1. Preserve the original ID on the LI generated for a footnote, so that the XREFs that point to the footnote still work. 2. Remove the footnotes with ID once they are copied as LIs in OLs. This avoids getting them in the footer of the page. 3. Replace footnote...

Re: Custom Footnotes Issue
We are examining the current XSL and CSS, it looks that there is a mix of footnote calls remaining from the old footnote system, different from the list of the footnotes collected in the ordered lists. We will come back to you with a suggestion.

Re: widow/orphan list items
The widows and orphans properties apply only to lines of text, while a list item may have a large text that wraps on multiple lines. These properties control the number of lines of text (not list items) that move to a new page. Other ways of glueing together list items is to avoid page breaks betwee...
