The conversion tends to produce lots of styles that differ only slightly from each other. Compared to hand coded HTML/CSS the code produced is poor. |
AMEN, brother. Jhowell recently was kind enough to help me with a customer's stranded KPF file and Lord, it's different than what I'm accustomed to seeing. BUT, we can clean it. It's not Vellum, and it's not the iAuthor crap either.
To be fair, Pages, like Word, outputs moderately-viable HTML If, if,
if the user is religious about styles. But if they type
ad hoc, it's far worse than the
ad hoc Word output, agreed. iAuthor's output is simply godawful. Worst thing I've ever seen, in this realm.
