dthWithCSS
(Default value)
Applies external CSS styles
The CSS code is generated in a ".CSS" file external to the HTML page. This file is created in the same directory as the generated HTML page. It has the same name as the HTML page, with the ".CSS" extension. A link to this file is added into the HTML code of the page.
If the document contains images, these ones are saved in a subdirectory named like the generated HTML file.
dthWithoutCSSApplies CSS styles inline CSS code is generated and integrated into the HTML code of the generated page. Each tag contains the CSS styles applied to it.
If the document contains images, they are integrated and are encoded in base64.
This constant allows, for example, to create an HTML generation adapted to new email messaging.
Note: if an image contained in an e-mail is over 100 Kb, it will generally be displayed as an e-mail attachment, even if it is encoded in base 64 in the e-mail.
