Word Style Sheet and Word Page Style documents

A Word Style Sheet document contains Microsoft Word styles, while a Word Page Style document contains margins and section properties. In KCM Designer for Windows, you can only create Word Style Sheet and Word Page Style documents. HTML Style Sheet and HTML Page Template documents can only be created in KCM Designer, but they will still be visible in KCM Designer for Windows.

For more information on styling, see the "Work with Corporate Design" topic in Kofax Communications Manager Designer Help.

Use Style Documents when Master Template is run

You can override style definitions when the Master Template is run. For more information about this mechanism, see the Work with Corporate Design topic in Kofax Communications Manager Designer Help.

Word Style Sheet document configured on project

When a Word Style Sheet document is configured on a project, all Word documents that use styles defined in the configured Style Document use the style as it is defined in the Style Document. A Master Template in such a project also includes these style definitions. This styling will be overriden by using the DOCUMENTSTYLE function or the legacy stylesheet and pagestyle functionality. We recommend that you use the DOCUMENTSTYLE function to handle the styling.

For more information on how to configure Style Documents, see Style Documents.

Although it is possible to configure a Style Document for a folder, we advise that you configure a Style Document on the project level only.

The Style Documents folder for a newly created project already contains predefined Style Documents, such as Word Style Sheet, Word Page Style, HTML Style Sheet, and HTML Page Template documents. They define the default styles needed to lay out Text Blocks.

Styles and protected documents

This only applies to Microsoft Word. If a project or folder is configured with a Word Style Sheet document, KCM Repository attempts to apply the styles from it to a document within this project when it is opened for editing or viewing. This can only be done if the document has no section protection. If the document is protected, KCM Repository asks you whether to temporarily lift the protection in order to apply the styles. You may be prompted to provide a password.
