Under HTML & CSS it can be useful to add a style sheet at this point (at the bottom ''Add style sheet…''), e.g. the Wellred template.css file. Make sure to ''Include classes in HTML'' to keep the formatting, but you can untick ''Generate CSS''
   - Once you have an InDesign generated Epub file, you can continue from step 4) under Method 1. It is also possible to start from step 3) if you prefer to work from another template, though that is more time-consuming and generally using good templates from the start saves a lot of time.
-  - For Wellred, this export from InDesign to final ebook is now almost fully automated by making use of a list of “saved searches” (available upon request), which you can organise in Sigil. By using a series of “find and replace” regular expressions, developed over the years, you can clean up most of the unnecessary/dirty HTML code generated by InDesign in a matter of minutes. (See the [[:regex|separate section on Regular expressions / scripts]]. There is also a way to use Python scripts within Sigil, as a plugin, to further speed up/optimise everything, although the saved searches seem to work well enough.)
