avevale_intelligencerI have a document which I'm trying to correct so that I can get it into a book. It's made up of three separate files which I combined, and I can get it looking reasonably good.
The only problem is, when I save it and then reopen it, the formatting has gone completely insane. Five or six fonts alternating, often in mid-paragraph, justification and margins reset, random "styles" inserted at odd points, and the fonts I put in just gone. I have tried time and again and it happens every single time. I've reduced it to a text file and pasted it into a brand new document. Same result. And of course I don't know if the gremlins are getting in when I save it or when I reopen it.
I need to get this thing to settle down and look the way I want it to look. Can anyone advise me as to what might be going on here, or how I might find out?
