Yes, you are right, but it does not solve my problem. The text file will 
contain the hidden formated text.

To make it very clear:
I do not care about the format information in the file.
I do not want the content (the hidden formated characters) in the file before 
shipping.

Using linux, the command line program xpath might do the job. It is capable of 
removing certain xml tags in a file like

<text:p text:style-name="P2">blabla</text:p>

Regards

Walther
