Hello

I am also curious as to why the standard style names have not been used for
the document templates used in LibreOffice documentation. Having specific
style names can cause problems when converting a document into another
format such as RTF or Word and I speak from personal experience when
converting templates into different formats - never easy, but better when
standard style names are used.

Also, using the standard style names for the documents also emphasises the
versatility of LibreOffice when used for creating large and complicated
documents. This could be a good selling point in getting users to adopt
LibreOffice as their main office software.

It makes me think that LibreOffice missed an opportunity when it came into
being from OpenOffice. Even just renaming the style names so that the names
start with LO instead of OOo.

Obviously there could be a legacy problem from existing documents, but new
names could be used when creating documents for a new version of
LibreOffice, that is 3.5.

Regards

Peter
