That seems like a pretty big restriction, and I'm fairly sure that I
want to use the "styled HTML".
This is should not be a restriction at all. I mean, the "MS-Word style
to XML element map" screen should have no purpose whatsoever when you
generate "Styled HTML". Explanations below.
Please generate some "Styled HTML" and open the generated files in a
text editor. You'll see that "Styled HTML" contains:
1) The CSS equivalent of the MS-Word styles being used, whether custom
or stock.
2) Basically a bunch of HTML <p>s (and no "block" element other than
<p>) styled using the above CSS styles.
One of the issues you faced is that indentation is not preserved in the
styled HTML <p>s containing your code examples.
This is clearly a bug because "Styled HTML" is expected to faithfully
look like the original DOCX. (Unfortunately, we currently don't know
how to fix this bug.)
In a nutshell, if you just want "Styled HTML" and want to preserve
indentation in the styled HTML <p>s containing your code examples,
* In a perfect world, you would have nothing special to do.
* In practice, you cannot simply map these <p>s to <pre>s using the
Wizard. You'll have to write a w2x customization by hand, in the form of
a small XED script.
See "6.1.1 Using a XED script to modify the styles embedded in the
XHTML+CSS file",
https://www.xmlmind.com/w2x/_distrib/doc/manual/index.html#modify_embedded_styles
The example used in that section resembles you use case:
---
set-rule(".p-ProgramListing", "white-space", "pre");
---
By the way, the drop down list shown in this screen shot contains the
number 4 two times (and no number 5), which is surely a mistake.
Yes. Bug fixed now. Thanks!

PS: "Styled HTML" is just a by-product of what w2x can really do:
generate semantic XML. I currently don't know much of our customers who
is interested in this by-product.
