If you are using the "use external style sheets" feature and do not
check the box to specify a url then this filename must be in the
resource folder or the directory of the report design. If you check the
box you can specify a url which should produce xml like:
> <list-property name="cssStyleSheets">
> <structure>
> <property name="fileName">mybirt.css</property>
> <property name="externalCssURI">css/mybirt.css</property>
> </structure>
> </list-property>

you are correct, the pdf emitter will only use the style if it finds the
style at the fileName attribute. If you email me the css I will take
a look at what style it is failing on.

Thank you Jason. I appreciate it.
The css has a mix of styles for the standard birt classes and for custom
bookmark ids.
