Hi,

I am trying to convert an adoc string to a stand-alone file via the ruby API. It works as expected as long as I use the default stylesheet but I would like to use a custom css and  I have failed miserably with this.

Working code for generating an html file with the default style sheet is:

    
...
Asciidoctor.convert(my_adoc_src_string, 
      to_file: "myfile.html,
      safe: :unsafe,
)
...

One version of the invocations I've unsuccessfully tried is:

    
...
Asciidoctor.convert(my_adoc_src_string, 
      to_file: "myfile.html,
      safe: :unsafe,
      attributes: {
        stylesheet: "path/to/my/stylesheet.css",
   }
)
...

The html is still generated using the default style sheet. What am I missing?

My goal is to have my custom css embedded in the output to make it more portable.
