Styles change when someone reviews a document and returns it
Using Word 2007, I'm creating a template that will be used for writing
policies. Formatting has become an issue though. If I use the default MS Word styles, the formatting of the document will sometimes change if the doc is sent to someone else for review and that person then returns the document with edits. For example, a text line will no longer be flush with the Heading 1 line above. Is that because that reader's style specifications for Heading 1 might differ from mine even though the style names are the same? If I rename the MS Word styles (e.g., CIP-Heading 1) am I likely to run into the same formatting problems if I send the document out for review? Or because these would be unique names, would the styles stay true as the document went from computer to computer? Thanks. |

The settings of the style you have been using will be stored in the document; it
will *not* be affected by the recipient's style definitions. -- Stefan Blom Microsoft Word MVP "kplank2" wrote in message ...
