IF YOU'RE A CRAZY PERSON

I *believe* I have figured out one of my Word corruption problems from yesterday.


I use a content management system called AuthorIT (AIT) to write material, and then I publish it to Word, HTML, HTML Help, whatever. To do so you need to set up templates, define your media (e.g. page/window size and margins) map styles from authoring environment to the template styles, and pray. Sometimes quite a lot. Once you've got it going it's great. Getting there can be tricky. Problems can be rare but wildly obscure.

From here on in this is just a copy from my [SOLUTION] post to the AIT list. Full link to thread below.

It looks like there's an issue if a Heading 1 does not have a page
break immediately before it, as you would expect at the start of a
chapter. This happens in a book with a completely flat structure with
a token Section object for my first bit of text, just to define the
media (see the original "book structure" image).

My theory:
(1) Where a Heading 1 style is applied to a Section break topic title
there is no problem with overlapping lines from the previous topic.

(2) Where a Heading 1 style is applied to a Normal topic title and
the previous topic is also Normal, then the last line of one topic
will appear in the next. Naturally.
