OpenOffice often corrupts all formatting

Bug #69646 reported by Bruno S. on 2006-11-01

Bug Description

Often when saving a text document OpenOffice doesn't save the formatting information contained in the styles.

A quick glance at styles.xml affirms my assumption.

At first I thought that merely *.odt files are affected, but in fact other file formats are affected, too. So this doesn't seem to be the export filter's fault, but an internal one in OO.
