cannot manually copy styles
I am using custom templates with many bulleted and
numbered lists. These styles lose their formatting often and when I try to copy the styles to or from another template to make corrections, the styles will not copy correctly. The only way I can fix styles is to reformat the style or styles in each document. |

The only way I can fix styles is to reformat the style or styles in each document. Are those styles losing "only" numbering-related formatting, or other stuff (font, size, etc.)?

I have set up the numbering properly. I also lost bulleted
list styles. The styles keep the numbers and bullets but lose the indents and tab settings. The big problem is that I have to fix these styles in each document where this happens because I cannot copy the styles from another template. -----Original Message----- Hello Eileen Eileen Cowan wrote: I am using custom templates with many bulleted and numbered lists.
