After importing custom or OOo predefined styles from another odt file into a Writer file in the doc file format using the current OOo version (Windows), the file is (supposedly) saved and the new parameters and page styles appear to be loaded OK, according to the Stylist. However, after closing the file and reopening it, the page styles revert back, and the supposedly imported custom page styles do not even reappear in the Stylist. Has this behavior been around before? Is there some setting that needs to be enabled or something so that the imported page styles can be permanently retained in the donee file?
That's an interesting variation on some other behaviour I have seen (over several versions of OOo), related to importing styles using the Template Organizer. I don't think I've seen that particular problem (supposedly imported custom page styles not even reappearing in the Stylist), though.
How did you import the styles? Load Styles, or using the Template Organizer? Regardless, I think it's a bug, not a setting that needs to be enabled.
I didn't follow what you meant by "into a Writer file in the doc file format".
