CSS Styles From InDesign 5.5 Export Problem
I've been having this problem, and was wondering if other have run in to it. When I export my epub from InDesign, it makes a bunch of styles for the same thing.
For example my header style is Quote:
Quote:
Any suggestions on what might be causing this. Just for reference, I create a chapter, and make all the styles for it. I then pour each chapter into the same file and save it as a new name. So I'm not sure if thats what is giving me all the multiple styles or if its something else. Thanks in advance for any help. |

I haven't come accross that but it sounds like you answered your own question.
Try loading styles or syncing instead. |

So I've also tried loading styles for each chapter, I get the same problem. InDesign seems to make a new style for every different chapter the style is used in, even though they are exactly the same. For a 20 chapter book, my CSS is a complete mess.

I don't have 5.5. I use 5 so I can't replicate your problem. However, you seem to be alone with it otherwise there would be more posts about it.
Have you tried doing the whole book as one file. That's what I do now. |

So incase anyone else runs in to this... http://www.creativeprogression.com/t...to-the-rescue/ |
