Master documents?
Use a single child document, where all the text editing takes place.
Three master documents, with required layouts. Use the same paragraph
and character style names throughout, but change the styles as required
in each master document. Make sense?

Hi,
I need to create documents witht the same content but the formatting must
be different:
- HTML
- PDF using a template
- Paper using printed letterhead
What I have been doing so far is creating an HTML document with an HTML
editor. Then I import the file into the template for PDF and do the same
for the letterhead printout.
The problem is that if I go back to the document to make changes, I need
to modify three documents. It's time consuming and annoying.
Is there a way (using a database, even) to have my content written only
once and when I make a change in one location, it affects all three
formats?
If I was using LaTeX, I would do this by creating two different document
classes, and use \input (or is it \include). The body of the document
would be in one file and I would only need to generate the appropriate
file format when needed. But I would only need to change the content once.
How can I accomplish this with OOo? Currently I use 2.2 on Ubuntu Feisty,
if that matters any.
Thanks,
L
