Okay understood. So just to confirm, between consecutive paragraphs of text under the same subheading, do you increase the line spacing of the last line, or leave an extra carraige return at the end (/n/n) to seperate the two? Regards Camillus Gerard Cai.

There's a good chance that you have introduced "white" as the typeface colour during your non-styled changes. It's worth checking and I join with Michele in saying that it is inadvisable to mix 'manual' changes with styled elements, especially in OOo documents on which many other people will work. ;-) Peter HB
