Aligning lists for Word output

Post by etk »

I usually work with PDF output and am having trouble aligning my lists for the Word output. All the topics are defined with the PDF stylesheet. For the build I have a particular MasterStylesheet for the Word output. I have had other formatting problems with the Word output, so I am able to make the changes to this stylesheet to get the result I want.
In the attached you will see:
. The Numbered list and the Bullet lists have different left alignment.
. Both are aligned further to the left than the main content.
I have tried making adjustments to the Padding, the Block, the list in the Word stylesheet to try to correct the alignment of lists - aligned with the main content and then progress to the right. I havent been able to solve my problem.
Help, please!

The property you want to change is margin-left for the OL and UL selectors.

Many thanks, Steve. My Word output looks beautiful!
Could you tell me...how do you modify the distance between a bullet (circle, number) and the text in a list?
