How do I make a new topic have the same formatting as other topics in a project?

[Guest]

Hi,

I am using RH 8 for HTML.  I am updating a preexisting project and am new to RH.  When I create a new topic, how do I get the formatting (fonts, shading, etc.) from another topic?  The old topics are formatted in a certain way.  When I create a new topic, or even paste existing content from an old topic into it, it has different fonts and shading.  Is this something I must do manually, or is there an automatic way?  Either way, I could use some pointers.

I would past a screen capture here, but when I tried to do that, the formatting went away.

Thank you for any help you can provide!

Hi there

Probably it's just a matter of associating the correct CSS file.

Open both topics in RoboHelp.

Edit a topic where things look correct.

Click the CSS icon as shown below:

Now edit the errant topic.

Click the same icon and choose the CSS file you saw earlier.

Cheers... Rick
