24.5.1 Indenting tables

Best practice is to use CSS to indent tables in HTML. The technique described in this section should be used only if you cannot use CSS.

Mif2Go can indent tables to match the indent used in your FrameMaker document. Because there is no indent attribute for tables in HTML, Mif2Go places a spacer graphic just before the table; see §23.6.3 Indenting images.

To use the spacer graphic:

[HTMLOptions]

; UseSpacers = No (default)

; or Yes, use to position tables and graphics

UseSpacers = Yes

See §23.6.3 Indenting images.

To specify the width of the spacer graphic:

[Tables]

; TableIndents=-1 (based on indent in FM), 0 (none), or count of

;  pixels; overridden for particular tables and groups in

;  [TableIndents] section

TableIndents = -1

When TableIndents=-1 (the default), tables are indented the same as in your FrameMaker document.

When TableIndents=0, tables are not indented.

When TableIndents=n, where n is a positive integer, tables are indented n pixels.

To override this setting for a particular table or table group:

[TableIndents]

; TableID = number of pixels to indent using PixelSpacerImage

; zero prevents indent, -1 is autoindent (default action)

; overrides default set in [Tables]TableIndents for its table or group

For example, to indent table af123456 by 60 pixels, and prevent any tables in file ag (see §5.3 Identifying files and objects) from being indented:

[TableIndents]

af123456=60

ag*=0
