TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
After getting the help fax from Robohelp (suggested by Steven Jong), calling
Robohelp support, and a number of tests in Word 6.0a, here is the solution:
* Word bullets or {bml bullet.bmp} bullets may be used
* Set the hanging indent of the style (Bullet, List, ...) to whatever value
you wish to get
* Set one tab stop to the same value as the hanging indent
* Apply the style to the paragraph
Then, for each item in a list:
* Add an extra TAB STOP anywhere in the paragraph.
This will write the hanging indent value for each paragraph in the RTF file.
Otherwise, this information is only written once for the first item in the list.
If anyone's interested, I've designed a macro that adds one tab stop (with
an 0.1 in incr.) for each para. of a selected style. If so, reply directly
to me.
P.S. Thank's to Steven for the info.
