Unable to align properly in print output

Post by TeSol »

Hi,

From a web-based output, the user has the option of printing a specific topic. The online output looks ok. However, while printing to an xps file, the alignment for bullets is not very good. See below.

The bullet is followed by the text, a soft-return (shift+enter) and then the 2nd line of text. But as you can see, the second line of text is neither below the bullet nor below the text in the first line. Any idea what property needs to be changed in the css?

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards.

Hi,

Open stylesheet and check the properties for ul and li for medium default (used online) and then select medium print and check that they are the same.

For what it is worth, I never use a soft-return because that makes it very difficult to move li items around when editing. Instead I right-click the li item and changer it into a paragraph item, so when pressed ENTER a new p tag is opened inside the li. In case text has to be moved, selecting the p tag is enough to start a drag-drop action.

Hopes this helps.

Greetings,
