Question - Policy body formatting issues

Policy formating issues

Hello,

I am currently working on the policies and am encountering difficulties in copying the policy contents from the Word document to Eramba. I am experiencing formatting issues throughout the process. I attempted to create a policy by typing directly into Eramba, but the intended numbering and formatting are inconsistent, leading to a loss of uniformity. I have also tried using Google Docs and saving the document in HTML format before importing it, but this has only exacerbated the problem.

Any assistance you can provide would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

just use the CLI Tool pandoc

pandoc policy.docx -o policy.html

Thank you @mathias

I tried that option. it is not resolving the issue entirely, I get a different font, and after pasting it in Eramba, there are different fonts and formatings. Also any future editing would also end up with the same issue.

for example

here I can have a numbered list, similar option in Eramba is never gives me the list, rather the text will just jump around.

  1. apple
  2. orange

yes, this is to be expected as different tools store what you see in very different ways (in particular ms word). that same happens to me even in between advanced editors such as ms word and google docs.

there are technicalities which can not be overcomed by us or aparrently as mentioned above, by no-one. the new policy module (see product roadmap) includes a much better text editor, this might help a bit.
