Unstructured to Structured: Question about retaining paragraph formats

[Rick Quatro]

Hi Lisa,

 

Try this: after you wrap a few elements, choose File > Import > Element
Definitions. Check the Format Rule Overrides checkbox and click Import. Does
that give you the correct formatting for each element? Thanks.

Subject: Unstructured to Structured: Question about retaining paragraph
formats

 

Hello All,

 

FM10 - We are converting an unstructured Frame file to Structured. Due to
unfortunate circumstances, we are not able to use a conversion table (sigh).

 

The issue is that during the hand tagging of this file, we have to wrap the
text in the element tags in para tags to match the schema.  When we wrap the
text, we lose the paragraph's formatting properties. Everything turns to
"body" and we have to reapply the format. 

 

We are able to manipulate the EDD somewhat but can't stray from the
structure. We've looked at Read\Write rules but they don't appear to help in
this case. We've also looked at using the "TextFormatRules,
ElementPgfFormatTag" options but we have more than one paragraph style that
goes to an individual element.

 

Does anyone have any other ideas?

 

BTW, everything works great when a new document is created using the
template, EDD, etc.

 

Thank you in advance! 

 

Sincerely,

Lisa Freeman
