Hello!

I'm trying to make the numbers in an ordered list a normal font weight, not bold.

I have the following in my CSS:

/* Make the ol numbers not bold */

  *[class~="topic/ol"] > *[class~="topic/li"]:before {

      font-weight: normal !important;

  }

When I preview the merged.xml from the Chemistry output, the CSS has the proper effect, but when I view the PDF, the numbers are still bold.

Indeed, there is a difference: For the screen is used the :before pseudo element while for the print the :marker pseudo element.
You should use:


*[class~="topic/ol"] > *[class~="topic/li"]::marker {

      font-weight:normal;

}

Ah, that works, thanks Dan!

Can't style the number of an ordered list, it always remains bold
