Created attachment 185269 [details] tdf127166_prstDash_Word97.doc: ww8export3 unit test In this file, the Heading 1 style has Chapter Numbering with numbering style of NONE. (So far so good - there should not be any visible numbering on paragraphs with a Heading 1 style.) The problem is seen in the first paragraph's "Bullets and Numbering - Position" where "Numbering is followed by" Tabstop instead of Nothing. This is causing problems as seen in LO 7.5.0 where the tabstop becomes visible. (See bug 153042 where this incomplete feature has since been reverted for DOC.) Followed-by tabstop is likely a LO default, and I assume that followed-by nothing is a Word default. A round-trip seems to change the follow-by to "nothing", so this is a relatively minor and temporary issue. This is probably a chapter numbering issue. When I created DOCX/RTF versions, it imports in LO without "Heading 1" assigned to chapter numbering - i.e. the entry for level 1 was left blank - completely avoiding the problem. sw/qa/extras/globalfilter's skipimages.doc exhibits the same on last two headers. To reproduce the issue. -use LO 7.6 bibisect - git checkout oldest -open tdf127166_prstDash_Word97.doc and look at the first paragraph -notice that it starts with a tabstop -open bullets and numbering - position and see the "followed by tabstop" setting The chapter numbering/followed by tabstop is already true in LO 5.2. Likely inherited from OOo.
See bug 148360 comment 15 for an import patch.

Right. > Not inherited, as OOo 3.3 does not show an indentation (even though the > dialog does show "Numbering followed by: tab stop"). Yes, I'm not worried about whether it shows or not. I'm only concerned about the values. IF microsoft office DID have these settings (remember that when we export, they are lost) then likely it WOULD display an indentation.
