This can be achieved by first installing the <code>htmlize</code> package from <code>melpa</code> / <code>elpa</code>. The EmacsWiki describes this as "a package for exporting the contents of an Emacs buffer to HTML while respecting display properties such as colors, fonts, underlining, invisibility, etc" (<a href="https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/Htmlize">reference</a>). If used "out-of-the-box", the buffer will be exported to HTML with all of the styles inlined (e.g. if you underline something in your org file, you will generate a <code><span style="text-decoration: underline">...</span></code>). However, we are more interested in styling everything by ourselves: we don't want <code>htmlize</code> making assumptions about what underlining means to us! Luckily, <code>htmlize</code> gives us the option to export with class names instead of inline styles so that we can specify each style for ourselves. </p> @@ -311,9 +312,9 @@ If we run the publish again, we can see that we have full styling on our code sn </p> </div> </div> -<div id="outline-container-org1a680fa" class="outline-2"> -<h2 id="org1a680fa">Images</h2> -<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-org1a680fa"> +<div id="outline-container-org227c647" class="outline-2"> +<h2 id="org227c647">Images</h2> +<div class="outline-text-2" id="text-org227c647"> <p> Our first two criteria have been met!
