Adapting EDD for WebWorks ePublisher Pro 9.1

[Daniel Osborn]

Hi Framers,

I'd like to ask your opinion on a workaround I've just found for using
structured Frame with WebWorks ePublisher Pro 9.1

At the moment, I have a problem with WebWorks ePublisher Pro as it
doesn't support basing styles on elements. 

All my formatting is defined in the edd using the format change list. If
I were using paragraph formatting in the edd, I could create empty
paragraph formats in my FM docs by saying "Automatically create formats
on import" at the top of the edd, then use these formats in WebWorks.

I've been playing a bit and discovered that it seems like I can create
the paragraph formats and continue to use the format change list. 

I declare each context rule twice (by copying the context rule I was
using). In the first instance, I change "Use format change list" to "Use
paragraph format". When I import the edd into my documents all the
paragraph formats are created and the formatting is correct (based on
the format change list). 

My question is, is this a sensible workaround? I'm not experienced
enough with structured Frame or edds to know if this will have any
unwanted consequences anywhere or to know what is really happening.
There are some things that now don't work, for example, you can't adjust
font sizes or indents using "Font size change" or "Move indent". 

I haven't changed everything yet as I would have to make quite a few
changes to the edd (especially concerning lists) and before I do that,
I'd like to hear any opinions on this.

Many thanks for your help,
Daniel
