Continued List Item Styles

If a single list item consists of more than one paragraph, then the Continued List Item styles are required. This page describes how these styles are used.

Continued List Item Level 1–4

The Continued List Item styles are used for the second and subsequent paragraphs of list items at Levels 1, 2, 3, and 4, as appropriate.

If a single item in the list is made up of more than one paragraph, a Continued List Item style must be used for the continuation paragraphs; otherwise, the subsequent paragraphs will be exported as separate list items.

By default, eXtyles NLM does not support other document structures such as quotes, equations, etc., inside list items. If it is necessary to interrupt a list with a non-list paragraph, such as a quote, and then continue the list, you will need a specific paragraph style (e.g. Quote in List) to allow that paragraph to appear in the list without causing the list to end in the XML file and to restart after the interposed paragraph.

More information about setting up lists in Word for optimal XML can be found here.

Example

The following example demonstrates the use of the Continued List Item Level 2 paragraph style. This illustration is an excerpt from the sample document: Sample 2_Book Review.docx
