Original Problem has been solved.

I moved your new question this to a different thread. Even when the same document is involved, it is best practice to post separate questions in separate threads. This makes things work better for other users looking for answers.

Try instead of StyleRef Überschrift, try StyleRef 1
That will translate freely between languages.
