The direct formatting is *only* the direct formatting: done using the toolbar buttons, or directly by doing right click on the text and changing paragraph/characters here. Removing direct formatting will *not* remove paragraph styles nor character styles since they are, well, styles, not direct formatting.
It can get confusing, but you just have to remember that there is multiple "layers" of formatting applied to the text: paragraph styles, then character styles, then direct formatting (don't ask me where the conditional formatting goes). -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
