MadCap Software Forums

Kevin,

I'd be interested to see your results if you copied the table as it is (in the same topic) and then rebuilt using Word and check if the columns still match up. I sent my code into support for MadCap to have a look at.

I've had a number of issues with table column widths in Word output and sent them to bug submission. Sorry I can't be of more help. I'm hoping v4 will fix these issues up.

I generally manually re-set the widths after outputting to Word.

Ok, problem solved.

I had created snippets by opening a topic in notepad, copying the code, and pasting it into a snippet file (which obviously kept the original image file locations).

Resolved by opening all the snippets and resetting any 'missing link' images.

Thanks all.

Will try to get you an update before the weekend. Will check some the code for the snippet.

Thanks for the responses.

Hi,
(this is probably easy and I'm probably tired but...)

Ok, I have created snippets that include graphics.

If the snippet is included in Level 1 it works and the images are displayed correctly. But if I insert the snippet into a Level 2 or 3 topic it displays the 'missing file' grey box. Now ...

Thank you both.

Have submitted it as a bug.

I haven't played with the print styles, Lisa.

I created a standard table in a topic with
<col style=\"width: 60%;\" />
<col style=\"width: 40%;\" />

I then copied that table to the same topic.

When I create a print out (using Word 2007 - haven't tried other versions) I get different column widths for each table. Yet the settings are exactly ...
