Thank you for providing this excellent tool. It's a welcome improvement over OO's native HTML export support.
I had hoped to use it to upload documents I compose in OO to LiveJournal. LJ permits HTML, but it also has a post length limit, so it's important that the HTML be as terse as possible while still formatting the text more or less as I want. I'm therefore using a config based on cleanxhtml.xml, and it's mostly satisfactory. (As you might imagine, OO's extremely verbose HTML was problematic.)
However, although I generally do not want style information exported, there's one paragraph style which I would always like to be centered. Is there any way to include a tag attribute (such as align="center") or an inline style via the style map? Or am I approaching this wrongly?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Unfortunately there is no support for mapping styles to inline styles.
* If the paragraphs are formatted with a style, you can map this to a CSS class of your choice, e.g. <p class="mycenteredclass">
(in the user interface that is Tools-Options-Writer2xhtml-Master styles)
* If the paragraphs are formatted with hard/direct formatting you may try
<option name="formatting" value="ignore_styles"/>
(In the user interface that is Tools-Options-Writer2xhtml-Formatting-Ignore styles)
This will convert all hard/direct formatting. If your document is sufficiently well-structured this might give the result you want.
If none of this suits your needs, please let me know which new options would do.
Best regards
Henrik
