Is there any way to import a collection of styles from a word document? I am working on some projects that have been passed along to me with custom styles in a word document, just curious if it would be possible to pull those styles into H&M
thanks much for the awesome writing environment

Re: Import Styles from Word
Hi Derek,
You can achieve this by saving the Word document as RTF and then importing the RTF to Help & Manual. If you don't want to import everything just delete most of the document before importing. Then open the project where you want to use the styles and select Import in the File menu.
You may need to make sure the imported text actually uses the styles you want to import to get them all.
