Jeff_Coatsworth Aug 29, 2012 10:17 AM (in response to mattrsullivan)I don't know much about structured FM, but I thought you controlled the formatting of your structured content with some EDD or XLST or something... Don't you have to import something like that into RH to handle structured content? I seem to remember seeing posts about importing DITA-maps or something into RH.
Totally out of my depth on this one ;>)

2. Re: Trouble controlling structured table alignment
mattrsullivan Aug 29, 2012 10:37 AM (in response to Jeff_Coatsworth)You're right...the formatting in a structured doc is generally handled with an EDD.
However, to map into RH, you need to have paragraph tags, which means the EDD calls out the tag used on the content, and then that tag is mapped to the CSS in RH. (Still with me???)
<rant>RH need to be able to map to elements and not just paragraph styles. RH needs to be an XML editor. RH needs a better DITA solution</rant>
UPDATE: It seems the application of the FrameMaker template in the conversion forces the <?rh> formatting. If I remove the conversion template, then the formatting from the FM document applies. Unfortunately, when applying the FramaMaker template, I am unable to control the table alignment from the template file.
It appears for now that I'll have to avoid applying the FrameMaker template with my linking process.
