testcase

The formatting of the attached document is not exported properly to .doc

It looks ok at first sight, but as soon as the doc user refreshes the headers their size go mad

Please elaborate what is wrong, attaching a screenshot would help as well.

BTW: Considering all your bug reports - the more detailed description, along with test file, steps to reproduce, screenshots, the better chance that it will be understood by potential developer and fixed.

Save testcase in .doc in libreoffice (any version), open result in word 2007, look at headers → they are in small font like in libreoffice

Select headers, refresh (F9) : theyr formatting changes (a lot)

Libreoffice export to .doc is wrong, but somehow it looks ok till the first document refresh

Opened in MSO 2013. I assume that by "headers" you mean Référence, Indice and Définitif. If I select one of them and press F9, nothing happens to the size. Win 8.1.

I saved to .doc in LibO and opened in MSO 2013. It does look a bit wrong, date turned into question marks.

#88013 files for the date on page 1 getting replaced with "??" when being opened in word.

Translation of what this bug seems to be about:

Reproduce:

* open .odt file
* export as .doc file
* open .doc file with Word
* go to page 2, double click in header, then right-click the word "foo-bar" and update from the right-click menu

Currently: after the update is done, the font changes from blue to black and increases in size

Expected: font should stay the same.

There's a ton of other problems with this beautiful testfile but one issues per bug.
