    Hi there,

    A generated Word document contains lines with erroneous Word-styles: Header-1 in stead of Normal.
    See attachment. Note: Header-1 = “Kop 1” in Dutch. Normal = “Standaard”.

    How do I prevent this? It is a lot of work to correct this after each generation.

    Kind regards,
    Erik van den Bergh

    Hi Erik,
    There are some settings where you can override the defaults for headings and other styles.
    They are in Options and Settings / Inline text settings.
    There you’ll find all the default styles for headings, and you can replace them with your own choices for headings and normal text.
    These are then saved in the settings of the document.
    To use them for all of your documents, just do a ‘save as’ the first document, and all the settings will be copied across to the new document.
    I hope this answers your question.

    Hi,

    I already changed the inline text setting before; see attachment. It did not resolve the problem.

    Kind regards, Erik

    There is a restriction in the MS Word API, which eaDocX uses, which means that it doesn’t allow paragraph style names which have spaces in them, so “KOP 1” will not work, but “Kop1” should be ok.
    Please can you try that ?

    Hi,

    I changed all styles “Kop #” to “Kop#” in both Word and Inline text settings.
    The result is still the same – see attachement.

    Kind regards Erik
