For PDF output remove the indent from the <p>

Post by avaldivia »

Hello, I want to remove the indent from the <p> so in the pdf shows the content aligned to the left but I can't seem to find where the indent is.


<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

<p>With just a little bit of care and preparation, any flower garden can be a vibrantly
colored environment. Flowers can be selected for specific blooming seasons, colors and
shapes. Both annual and <xref keyref="perennial" format="dita">perennial</xref>
flower gardens can be planted depending on climate and specific needs.</p>
</body>
</topic>

Can anyone help me please?

Hello,

Normally the paragraphs are not indented by default in the DITA Map PDF - based on HTML5 & CSS transformation.
You can try to debug your CSS to see what rules are applied on paragraphs.
You can also send back an image to see what do you mean by "indent".

Regards,
Julien
