Hi,

I'm trying to begin a new series of documents as Help for web pages I'm creating so I opened an existing document to use as a template so I would have the proper styling. I removed what I didn't want and saved it as a template. This is nothing new for me as I've been using this software for many years. Well, various versions of it anyway.

When I open this new template to start a new document, the styling is all wrong and any effort I make to correct it just causes more issues. (By the way: MS Word 2013 & W10)

I was told that there's a setting somewhere to automatically load a predefined style and I'm guessing this is the issue. However, I cannot find anything that sems like it would control this behavior.

I always open the styles box from the Paragraph area of the Home tab to watch what's being used and what I see in my document is completely different from what I see when I open the original document that I created my template from.

Any help (or solution) would be greatly appreciated.
