   I use outliner for 2 days.

   I have some severe problems with the program

   1. After importing files from disk there is some distortion in graphics.
   Text in a circle are placed outside the circle (for instance).
   2. If I change a style e.g. a header style. The style is not saved.
   F.I. I change a header from arial tot times roman. When I save the project and
   start up again the document showns the old styles
   3. Pictures get lost (sometimes). I see only a square with a red cross in it.

   Hi Guido22,

   1. Were the files created by the same version of Microsoft Word to which you are importing?

   2. Writing Outliner is main concept is project-based writing, so different document in the same top-parent folder shares the same set of styles, so in your instance if the heading style will be updated to the last style you changed in any document of the same top-parent folder.

   3. I have had the same problem when importing some Word 2003 documents into Word 2007, that's strange, Writing Outliner just calls the programming interface provided by Microsoft Word... I'll dig into it. For now, you can try this workaround:
   a) Instead of importing, in your project outline create a new document;
   b) open the source doc you want to import in ordinary Microsoft Word, select all content, copy it to the clipboard;
   C) go back to the blank document you created in step a in your Writing Outliner project, do a pasting.

   Hope it helps.
