Word output is removing random words

[hferguson]

When we select Word as the output, random words will be missing from the Word files. When we build, we are choosing to create a new file for each chapter, but that is the only special option we are using other than changing the output type in the target. Is there an option we are forgetting to select for Word output?

Have you by any remote chance used any "Conditional" Text?

Other than that, perhaps look for a Topic where a word has gone missing. Open that Topic in Flar, and then click on "Send this file to the text editor".

Hopefully you will be able to browse to that past of the HTML code and see if anything HTML-wise is surrounding that word. This may hopefully give you some clues.

The only other thing that comes to mind, other than conditional text, is if the missing words were variables and someone went into the Word target and overrode the contents of the variables with blank spaces. Don't know why they would, but that's a possibility.

Also, check your print medium in the stylesheet to make sure none of the classes, especially generic or span classes, have the "display" attribute set to none.

Thanks,
We tried looking at the code, but didn't find anything suspicious. The only thing we can think of is that SOME of the words happen to also be x-refs. But not all.

Any other ideas??

Lisa,
Thank you! It ended up being the display settings for our a tags.
