Re: CSS files in RoboHelp (Tech Comm Suite

[Rick Stone <rstone75 -at- kc -dot- rr -dot- com>]

Hi Kim

To apply a style sheet to all topics in RoboHelp 7, take the following 
steps:

1. View the Topic List pod by clicking View > Pods > Topic List
2. Inside the Topic List pod, click once to select any topic.
3. Press Ctrl+A to select all topics.
4. Right click the selection and choose Properties...
5. Click the Appearance tab.
6. Select the desired style sheet to be used and click OK

Cheers... Rick :)
