[By Design] IDML Import issue with table


Recommended Posts

Without having the file I would guess overflowing text frames, but normally the dots would be red and not orange(?). If they are elements of their own, they should be visible in the Layers panel.

Yes, why not. Or if not confident you can upload it in this thread.

Here is the File. It starts with the red points in first page below Type, and on the other table with the Picture. Some others are on the next pages.

What I found out, that if I merge two colums and separate them afterwards, it disappears!

All done with publisher 1.8.3.641 also in beta 1.8.4.663

So this one is something for the developers to examine. Importing the IDML to APu adds a bullet list property to all styles. To repair this, you have to remove the bullet list property from all your styles except for "Aufzählung". But why a table cell originally formatted with "Tabelle Körper" is now formatted with "Aufzählung" is another mystery to solve for the developers. But you can fix that too, by changing the formatting of the cell to "Tabelle Körper".

I'm afraid this issue has been closed as By Design. 

The original document contains tables that use the Aufzählung paragraph style. This style has Bullets and Numbering setup (even in InDesign) and we are honoring that style. The difference between the two applications is that InDesign does not show a bullet if the paragraph is empty (contains no text) whereas Publisher always shows the bullet, even if no text follows. Text is following that by design. Best work around is to change the style definition, either in the original or new document.
