![]() ![]() This only happens when you export free flowable, by the way, not fixed layout. I'm going to go ahead and export this document to EPUB. And you'll get a dialog box warning you about collisions in recent versions of InDesign. And when you have two style names with a different illegal character, it's going to replace them both with the same dash, and so, they're going to merge. But that's all it knows how to do, is replace things with underscores and hyphens. It just replaces the illegal characters with a hyphen, and replaces numbers that start out styles, which you can't use in CSS, with underscores, which is fine. And normally, InDesign deals with that with equanimity. Well, what's served perfectly fine for print and pdf is going to cause problems, because a lot of these characters are illegal in CSS names. This all makes sense to them, this is how they've been creating these files for the past umpteen years. They have the same exact paragraph name such as example preceded with a 1 and a parenthesis, and then they also have an example with an a with two parenthesis, and example with an a and a bracket with a parenthesis following it, and they have an example with a 1 and a backslash. ![]() If we look at the paragraph styles for this document, you can see that their paragraph styles are named kind of strangely. This is an actual document from a client that I have obfuscated for this video that shows the style problem and allows me to show you the solution that we came up with. CSS Styles have a much stricter naming convention than InDesign's paragraph styles and that's where you might end up in trouble. When you export a document to EPUB from within InDesign, InDesign looks at all the paragraph styles and reformats them into CSS styles in the EPUB.
