glossary in table format

Post by commit »

hi,

I have added glossary in my project, it is working fine in webhelp. Now i want to generate the glossary terms in printed documents in table format. I have tried using the glossary proxy option of flare. It is printing all terms but they are not in the tabular format. Can anyone suggest if it is possible to do so. i have also tried modifying the .Css file but :roll: all in vain. please suggest a solution.

if its too complicated it might not be worth the effort.

It might be easier to do this as post processing in Word. Select the glossary and choose convert text to table option. Specify 2 columns and break at paragraph mark.

You could play around with the stylesheet to try and get something to work, but post processing takes seconds and seem (to me) the better option.
