Suppose that for RTF output you want to make numbers on procedure steps and substeps bold, and give them a color different from the text; for example, RGB 42-96-248. To do this, in local_d2rtf_formats.ini you would modify the inline format used in the numbering formats for steps and substeps.
These are the format definitions in system d2rtf_formats.ini:
[StepNumbered]
based=Numbered1
xref=StepXref
[StepNumberedFirst]
based=Numbered1First
xref=StepXref
Look at the format on which they are based:
[Numbered1]
based=Body
margin left=0.25in
text indent=-0.25in
margin top=2pt
margin bottom=2pt
tabs=0.25in
number=List1Num
xref=NumXref
You see that the number format is List1Num. That is defined (in system d2rtf_subformats.ini) as:
[List1Num]
stream = List1Stream
counter = 1
form = <counter1/>.<tab/>
You need to override the form value. Add a section for the inline format in local_d2rtf_formats.ini, specifying a different number format; for example:
[StepNumbered]
number=MyList1Num
and define that number format in local_d2rtf_subformats.ini:
[MyList1Num]
based=List1Num
form=<BlueBold><counter1/>.<tab/>
[BlueBold]
color=rgb(42,96,148)
based=Bold
Now the numbers on steps and substeps will be bold and blue in RTF output.
