Description Rich 2024-12-18 01:56:56 UTC
Description:
I created an outline document made of a bulleted list using the List Contents style. To read it on my tablet I exported to an Epub. When I open the epub, the list shows up one item per page. I tried this with several readers, all the same. When exporting the document I selected Epub 3 and used the headers selection. I think it's the style, because I made another list and kept the Default Paragraph Style and the list shows normally in the epub.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Created list using the List Contents paragraph style
2. Export document to an epub
3. Open epub, see the list items one per page instead of together

Actual Results:
List items have page breaks between them.

Expected Results:
List items to display as they do on screen.


Reproducible: Always

With this test document the file is on a single page in the epub file.

Rich, can you test with my demo file from comment 2?
It is created like in your description
Comment 4 Rich 2025-01-07 23:48:36 UTC
That file isn't showing the problem. The list items are Default Para style, which works fine. You need to set them to List Contents style.
