Cannot render the ⌥ symbol
When I generate a PDF from HTML that contains the "⌥" symbol, Chemistry is rendering the result as "#". The source HTML file has the following: <span class="ph uicontrol">⌥ option</span> key Chemistry is failing to convert that Unicode correctly. Any suggested...

Re: Chemistry ignores cell span directives
Hi Costin, I actually misspoke in my previous request. I'm using Chemistry to generate the PDF from an intermediate HTML file. Here's the HTML in question: <tr class="row"> <td class="entry" headers="network-analysis-graph__controls__entry__1 network-analysis-graph__controls...

Chemistry ignores cell span directives
I need a table cell to span two columns. Marked it with <entry namest="c1" nameend="c2">. The columns c1 and c2 are defined in the proper place. Works correctly when rendered into HTML but fails when rendering to PDF. Is this a known issue? Is there a workaround?

Re: Table fonts.
In case anyone else runs into this, Costin provided a solution that eliminated the problem for me. Added the following to my CSS:

Re: Display URL
Thanks for the answers, folks. My engineers have suggested URL mangling so that our users won't try to copy&paste the link. That should also kill the live link that the PDF reader generates.

Display URL
Chemistry makes URLs live even when the author's intent was to just display it. I have a URL to a malicious download that I definitely don't want my users clicking. Here's a snippet of DITA source: a download was made from the URL <keyword>http://kharkiv.biz.ua/hPpD/</keyword> As there's no xref, I ...

Table fonts.
My default fonts are 12pt. When I build the PDF, the output fonts in the table are about half the size. I tried the following in my CSS: table tbody tr td p{ font-size: 12pt !important; } It didn't work. The fonts are still about half size. How do I get tables to use the same font size as the rest o...

Re: Chemistry chokes on extended-ISO entity
This fix works for me. As I tag the rightarrow character, I was able to make your fix more specific so I don't get a font change applied to the rest of my text.
Many thanks

Re: widows and orphans
Although it sometimes generates unwanted whitespace, I found using "page-break-after: avoid;" mostly keeps my steps together.
Code: Select all
li.step:before{
content: "Step " counter(item) ": " !important;
counter-increment: item;
font-weight: bold;
page-break-after: avoid;
}

Chemistry currently ignores border-radius CSS directives. Would it be possible to add that in?

Adrian, correct that it's a Mac. None of the methods you offered worked at changing the focus on this pop-up. Is there anything else I can try to make "Create new file" work without having to resort to the mouse?

Is it possible to make "Create new file" rather than "Close" the default when the app displays the "Cannot open the specified file" popup?
