Linked Style Sheet defs getting embedded using Word 2003 for H
Hi Cindy,
Thanks for reply. Having noted your reply, the htm files Word makes still render OK. It appears that it includes all that extra stuff because it is attempting to implement WEFT into the document,so that the FONTS used in the style sheet properly render in the site visitor's browser. It seems though, that it doesn't respect the future edits to the style sheet, even though the link reference is still in tact. What a bizarre implementation. Seems 1/2-baked. Thanks & Regards, Stewart "Cindy M -WordMVP-" wrote: Hi ?B?U3Rld2FydCBMYW5l?=, I am developing a site and use Macromedia DreamWeaver for some simple HTML edits (for some IFRAMES). I use Visual Studio, VB.NET, ASP.NET, etc. for the rest. I have some small htm docs that are linked to an external style sheet. The users for whom I'm developing will change the content periodically in these ..htm files and their tool is Word 2003. After they edit with word, word has embedded tons of font definitions and has changed the class tags to what it liikes from what I had done in DreamWeaver. This can take the size of the .htm file from 1-2K to 15-20K. Oddly, it still has the link reference, but I'm not sure if it respects it any longer. LINK href="facility_new.css" type="text/css" rel="stylesheet" Is there a way to have Word leave it clean, the way I had it without putting all its stuff in there? No. No possibility what so ever. Word is NOT an HTML editor. Word can create "web pages", but these are basically HTML renderings of Word documents. Word makes no effort to respect any HTML it receives. These users need to use a different tool, FrontPage MAYBE. Or you need to do some kind of transform on the files after the users have opened them in Word.
