Reply to: TOPLEAF: Changing the appearance of Part and Chapter headings in PDF

Thanks Geoff! Sorry for not clarifying which stylesheet I'm using. I'm using the book stylesheet template that came with the TopLeaf plugin.

In the default book stylesheet no chapter mapping exists. Creating it with the default attributes and populating the Pre-context box of the Custom tab with:
{@navtitle}

causes the generated PDF to display the error message
#IMPLIED *** level chapter not mapped

for chapter level headings and
Topic Title *** level P2 not mapped for topic level headings.

Should I not create a mapping for chapter? Or are there other steps I've missed here that are causing the title levels to display as “not mapped”?

Additionally, using the XMetaL default bookmap, navtitles for chapters are populated as Title... rather than as . Do I need to use one format instead of the other so TopLeaf can correctly read the navtitle information, or is one as good as the other?

Again, thanks for replying. The feedback is much appreciated and I know it's difficult without having the files I'm working with in front of you.
