Re: Customise document conversion stylesheets: something I haven't noticed till recently

--> About the difference between bookmap and topic, the behavior you 
describe may be surprising but is normal.

An XSLT Stylesheet customization applies only to a single XXE configuration.

DITA has 3 configurations: "DITA Map", "DITA BookMap", "DITA" (for 
topics of any kind").

Therefore, if you want to use your "Underlines" customization for all 3 
configurations:

1) Open or create a topic.
2) "Option|Customize Document Conversion Stylesheets".
3) "Convert to PDF, Postscript".
4) Click "Add".
5) Select your existing file:/T:/_templates/fo_indent_custom.xsl.
6) Click OK and you are done for topics.

Now repeat the same procedure two more times:

- In step (1), Open or create a map.

- In step (1), Open or create a bookmap.



--> About loosing your "Underlines" customization for bookmaps each time 
you restart XXE, this may be caused by your working environment as I 
have no way to reproduce the problem here at XMLmind Software. (I tested 
this and it works fine for me.)

Do you have sufficient permissions on shared drive T:? Do you have 
read/write permissions on your user preferences directory (see 
https://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/com.xmlmind.guiutil.PreferencesEditorDialog.html)?
