File management
Last updated 6/3/2015
The Custom Filter dialog only allows for the filtering of exact file names (style.css), file extensions (.php), and
wildcard expressions using asterisks (*menu*). You can filter on multiple wildcard expressions by separating each
expression with a semi-colon (for example, style.css;*.js;*tpl.php).
Note: Filter settings do not persist once you close the file.
Clean up Microsoft Word HTML files
You can open documents saved by Microsoft Word as HTML files, and then use the Clean Up Word HTML command
to remove the extraneous HTML code generated by Word. The Clean Up Word HTML command is available for
documents saved as HTML files by Word 97 or later.
The code that Dreamweaver removes is primarily used by Word to format and display documents in Word and is not
needed to display the HTML file. Retain a copy of your original Word (.doc) file as a backup, because you may not be
able to reopen the HTML document in Word once you’ve applied the Clean Up Word HTML feature.
To clean up HTML or XHTML that was not generated by Microsoft Word, use the Cleanup HTML command.
1 Save your Microsoft Word document as an HTML file.
Note: In Windows, close the file in Word to avoid a sharing violation.
2 Open the HTML file in Dreamweaver.
To view the HTML code generated by Word, switch to Code view (View > Code).
3 Select Commands > Clean Up Word HTML.
Note: If Dreamweaver is unable to determine which version of Word was used to save the file, select the correct version
from the pop-up menu.
4 Select (or deselect) options for the cleanup. The preferences you enter are saved as default cleanup settings.
Dreamweaver applies the cleanup settings to the HTML document and a log of the changes appears (unless you
deselected that option in the dialog box).
Remove All Word Specific Markup Removes all Microsoft Word-specific HTML, including XML from HTMLtags,
Word custom metadata and link tags in the head of the document, Word XML markup, conditional tags and their
contents, and empty paragraphs and margins from styles. You can select each of these options individually using the
Detailed tab.
Clean Up CSS Removes all Word-specific CSS, including inline CSS styles when possible (where the parent style has
the same style properties), style attributes beginning with “mso,” non-CSS style declarations, CSS style attributes
from tables, and all unused style definitions from the head. You can further customize this option using the Detailed
tab.
Clean Up Tags Removes HTML tags, converting the default body text to size 2 HTML text.
Fix Invalidly Nested Tags Removes the font markup tags inserted by Word outside the paragraph and heading
(block-level) tags.
Apply Source Formatting Applies the source formatting options you specify in HTML Format preferences and
SourceFormat.txt to the document.
Show Log On Completion Displays an alert box with details about the changes made to the document as soon as the
cleanup is finished.
5 Click OK, or click the Detailed tab if you want to further customize the Remove All Word Specific Markup and
Clean Up CSS options, and then click OK.
