Re: [libreoffice-users] Paragraph Styles Not Updating

Hi :)
I gather this has been fixed by just re-writing the document?  I have just had to do something 
similar for a Newsletter made for a particular version of Word that didn't work at all well in our 
current version or in LibreOffice.  Even in the right version of Word there was only 1 person that 
could get it to work properly.  It was painful to re-create it but now i have a great template that 
is easy for anyone to use :)

So, has the problem been fixed now?
Regards from
Tom :)
