Numbering

This content that was on this page has been removed. It was related to the Printed Output topic and was started back in the days of RoboHelp X5 as an attempt to explain the problems surrounding multi-level (nested) lists. It was not completed but I made it available as it contained some useful information.

The plan was to hopefully identify a means of producing nested numbering that could be ported to Word. A number of people told me they would get it working as it was so important to them, nobody came up with a robust method!

Fortunately Adobe RoboHelp 8 introduced multi-level lists that did port to Word, albeit not as a true list, and Adobe RoboHelp 9 added the ability to map multi-level lists to Word multi-level list styles so that they remain true lists in Word.

If you need multi-level lists, then I recommend you consider upgrading. See Lists for more information.
