The HTML settings provides a way to customize
the output of HTML exported books to your liking.
Phrases
The Phrases tab gives you control over how DreamPath will convert each object
(like path, or action) to the HTML output.
Phrase Presentation
Each object will eventually be converted to a single phrase. The 'Text
Presentation' is the structure of that phrase. The 'Text Presentation' will
usually have placeholders ( such as '[1]').
Each Phrase have different amount and meaning of placeholders but they all mean
the same - a value from the book will replace the placeholder in the final
outcome. The meaning of the placeholders ix explained in the 'Object
Explanation'.
For Example:
The text presentation of regular paths is: "[1] (paragraph [2])"
A path with the description "Go downstairs" and destination "23" will be
presented like so:
"Go downstairs (paragraph 23)"
* Supported Phrases - some phrases in the current
will not be converted to HTML books. Try avoiding using these objects unless you
intend to use *.dps books. The objects are not supported as they are too complex
for simple reading and needs a machine behind it.
* Ignore Phrase - If you
don't want a specific object to be converted to a phrase all you need is to
check this checkbox.
HTML Control
The HTML control tab gives you control over the final output of the
exported book.
* Mix Pages - checking this
option will mix the pages' numbers and order making the book a little harder to
cheat. The first and last page aren't mixed. * Paragraphs in Table -
checking this option will position each page inside a table cell. It has better
aesthetics but if for any reason you don't wish it to be inside the table just
uncheck the option (usually for printing the book) * Hyperlinked Paths -
checking this option will make paths a hyperlink leading to the path's
destination. * Include Ads - This is a
contribution to DreamPath and will be a tremendous help. checking this option
will add ads to the output. * CSS Control - This
strong feature allows you to alter the CSS of the HTML which gives you full
control over the presentation of the page. if you wish to learn of CSS

W3School
TIP! you can make your book prettier by using images
as your background in the CSS Control. (don't forget to bring the images
along with the HTML file/files)
