In an oo doc styles and content are indeed separate. They are important if you want to recreate a document that looks the same as the original imported version. But this might not be important. I believe there is a third element in an oo document called settings.xml which to me looks like it applies the styles to the content, but i may be wrong... Once a document is captured, or written natively within eZ are the exact styles important? For a new document i would say it isnt but maybe for an important document it will be. However, once the initial work gets an document in and out further work and look at retaining styles. For example the conversion program i mentioned builds XSLT based on the styles of the document. That could be used to display the document on a web page, plus to recreate the same styles in an exported doc. Walking before running is important here :) I think once something is up and running and on pubsvn we can perhaps put a project plan together about how to proceed. If Ekkehard doesn't mind others helping that is ;) paul
