Default Superscripts removed when applying style

Hi Sebastian,

[Word 2007]
So, once I copied the text into the new file I start
looking for superscripts and subscripts with Find
and Replace option. Basically I asked the MS Word
to look for any superscript and replace it with
character styles Superscript I defined. I did the same
for subscripts and everything was perfect.


An alternative: Replace with "Highlight", e. g. yellow and green. The
Highlight formatting cannot be removed by Ctrl+Space, nor by applying
any style.
So after having applied any paragraph style you can replace yellow
highlight by Superscript 1, green higlight by Subscript.

After that I selected the entire text and
I applied the paragraph style Body, which
I also create. After I finished laying out the
document, the horror. Actually all superscripts
and subscripts are missing.


I wasn't able to reproduce the problem. Did you apply a pure Paragraph
style or a Linked style? On which style is the Body style based on?
