Understanding the Default paragraph style

The Default paragraph style analyzes the FrameMaker paragraph tag, then inserts code into the output to match the FrameMaker tag's formatting. For example, if your text in the FrameMaker file is red and bold, the XML output will be red and bold. However, it is best to map your FrameMaker paragraph styles to Publisher formats other than Default. Relying on the Default style will make your XML files larger because of the amount of code associated with the Default style.

For example, this is the XML tagging for a paragraph mapped to Default:

 <Chapter class="Default" style="display: inline; color: #000000;
 font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 24pt; font-style: oblique; font-
weight: normal; margin-bottom: 67pt; margin-left: 60pt; margin-
right: 80pt; margin-top: 10pt; text-align: left; text-decoration: 
none; text-indent: 0pt; text-transform: none; vertical-align: 
baseline">

This is the tagging for the same paragraph mapped to Body:

 <Chapter class="Body" id="854343">
