By default, w2x adds a number of CSS rules to the /html
/head
/style
element of the generated XHTML+CSS file. Example: excerpts from w2x_install_dir/doc/manual/manual.html
:
<style type="text/css"> body { counter-reset: n-1-0 0 n-1-1 0 n-1-2 0 n-17-0 0 n-20-0 0; font-family: Calibri; font-size: 11pt; } ... </style>
A XED script allows to modify, not only the nodes of an XHTML document, but also its “CSS styles”. These “CSS styles” may be either style properties contained in the style
attribute of an element or class names found in the class
attribute of an element or the CSS rules of the document.
Therefore, when the desired customization is limited, suffice to execute a XED script in order to modify the XHTML+CSS document created by the Convert step. Example:
w2x -pu edit.before.finish-styles customize\patch_manual.xed¬ manual.docx out\manual.html
where w2x_install_dir/doc/manual/customize/patch_manual.xed
contains:
set-rule(".p-ProgramListing", "white-space", "pre");
The above line adds CSS property “white-space: pre;
” to the CSS rule having “.p-ProgramListing
” as its selector. This CSS rule corresponds to custom paragraph[6] style called “ProgramListing
”.
Besides XED command set-rule, the following commands allow to edit the CSS styles contained in the XHTML+CSS document created by the Convert step: add-class
, add-rule
, remove-class
, remove-rule
, set-style
.
[6]It’s a paragraph style because the CSS style name has a “p-
“ prefix.
