#### 8.3.1.3 Converting character formats

Mif2Go can output FrameMaker character formats as Word character styles, instead of as overrides. Use this feature only if you anticipate needing to revise the RTF text:

[HelpOptions]

; CharStylesUsedInText = No (help default, no cs codes allowed)

CharStylesUsedInText = Yes

Most character-format settings for print RTF apply also to WinHelp RTF; these settings are described in §6.7.8 Converting character formats. The settings described here are those that are exclusive to WinHelp, or that differ in usage from the same-named settings for print RTF:

Small Caps

Underlining used as an override

Small Caps

Text in Small Caps style might be too small to read easily, reducing the size of the original caps. If this happens, you can turn off the Small Caps style:

[HelpOptions]

; SmallCaps = Standard (default), or None

SmallCaps=None

Underlining used as an override

By default, Mif2Go eliminates underlining that was applied to text in FrameMaker via format overrides; that is, underlining is removed unless it is defined to be part of a character or paragraph format:

[HelpOptions]

; AllowLiningOverrides = No (default,

; underline change only in formats)

AllowLiningOverrides=No

This prevents confusion of random underlined text with links, which are underlined automatically in WinHelp. When someone clicks underlined text and nothing happens, it looks as though a link is broken. You can change this setting to Yes to keep the underlining.
