Tabs / Indenting / Hidden Text



The Tabs/ Indenting/ Hidden Text configuration tab controls how spacing within the source document will be preserved or changed when the HTML document is created.






Tabs



Presently, there is no HTML command to allow conversion of tab characters or functions. Indenting can be somewhat emulated using the BLOCKQUOTE tag. The following options are presented to allow the user greater flexibility in the conversion of tabs and indents.


Parameter Description
Ignore Tabs This setting, when selected, causes all tabs to be ignored within the source document. Tabs will be converted to single spaces.
Convert to Non-Breaking Spaces This setting, when selected, causes all tabs to be converted into a number of non-breaking spaces based on the source document's tab ruler settings. This setting is recommended to emulate the spacing used in the source document.
Convert to Graphic Spacer When selected, this setting will insert a transparent clear graphic which will insert space in front of the text. This may or may not result in the desired effect.



Indents



Parameter Description
Ignore Indenting This setting, when selected, causes all indent tabs and functions to be ignored within the source document.
Convert to BLOCKQUOTE Only at Paragraph Start This setting, when selected, will use the HTML tag "BLOCKQUOTE" only when indents occur at the start of a paragraph. This setting is recommended as indents embedded in the paragraph will cause a line break, as opposed to a page break. This tag will also indent the paragraph equally from the right margin.
Convert to BLOCKQUOTE on All Instances This setting, when selected, will use the HTML tag "BLOCKQUOTE" on all occurrences. Any indents may break the paragraph and force a new line when loaded into a browser.
Force Indenting of Entire Page By This setting, when selected, indents all contents of the page to the right by the specified number of spaces.



Hidden Text



Parameter Description
Display Hidden Text / Comments This setting, when selected, causes hidden text to be visible within the converted HTML document.
Convert as HTML Comments
This setting, when selected, causes hidden text to remain hidden within the converted HTML document.
Ignore Hidden Text This setting, when selected, causes all hidden text in the source document to be ignored.
