I am not much familiar with MS Word formats. I am wondering whether it is possible to convert MS Word Templates and MS Word documents in to their OpenDocument equivalents (*.odt and *.ott) and yet /retain/ the style names around the round-trip. Note that the _style names_ should be stable. In LibreOffice terms, these are the style names that you see on the rightmost window of the screenshot that I posted earlier [1]. Sometimes documents can be re-written using automatic styles [2]. The converted document will look like the original but internally they may be relying on automatically generated styles [3]. What sort of styles these Word documents rely on (typically). I mean Character styles, Paragraph styles, Page Styles, List styles, Table-* related styles etc.[4q] If someone can create a personal word template and willing to experiment with back-and-forths between LibreOffice and MS Word formats, I am willing to exchange notes with him/her and amend the exporter to accommodate new requirements. I don't have access to MS Word but only LibreOffice that comes bundled with Debian.

[3] If you are a programmer, think of cloning a style-name under a new name and referencing it Vs referencing the original stylename.
