The problem is that text using with the same style in Word – List Bullet – is given different formatting depending on what comes before it. Specifically, the Margin Left value changes. This is giving me very ugly results. This occurs both in version 2011 and newest 2012.
Where can I find and change the margin definition?
For example, in many documents, I have text as follows (style name in angle brackets):
- Item 1
- Item 2
- Description of Item 2
- Item 3
Upon compiling to NetHelp, the first two bullet items are given the same margin, 52pt.
p style="TEXT-INDENT: -18.75pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 52pt; tab-stops: 52.0pt" class="MsoListBulletCxSpFirst"
p style="TEXT-INDENT: -18.75pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 52pt; tab-stops: 52.0pt" class="MsoListBulletCxSpLast"
but the bullet item after the
- gets a margin of 18 instead of 52.
p style="TEXT-INDENT: -18.75pt; MARGIN-LEFT: 18pt; tab-stops: 52.0pt" class="MsoListBullet"

… Naturally, the text in angle brackets vanished. sigh. Let’s try that code button at the top of this edit field to see what happens.
<List Bullet> Item 1
<List Bullet> Item 2
<List Continue> Description of item 2
<List Bullet> Item 3

Hi
Could you please provide us with a small sample so that we can try running it at our end?
Thanks and Regards

I’ve experienced something similar when producing Word output from XHTML source files. In this case, the Word output was not tagged with the correct style names, and the formatting was somewhat random (tabbing, paragraph spacing, even font style). This happend most frequently within numbered/bulleted list combinations like you are describing.
