Hi,
the help for the Writer word import states, that formating template
information is thrown away on the inport and the template attributes
become direct attributes. I wonder why this descision was made. For
small documents this is probably fine but for large documents it throws
away the document maintainability. I e.g. have a manual for a piece of
software I wrote (around 650 pages) and I started the manual in Word
years ago. I think it wouldn't take me more than a few hours to get this
document in shape after an import to Writer, if all the template linkage
information would be imported (that is which text is formated by which
template), even if it would be a bit inaccurate. Fixing the template
definitions is relativly easy. But reassigning all the template would
probably take me two weeks. This document is the only reason why I still
need Word and I would honestly like to get rid of it ;-)
Best regards,
Michael
