On the contrary, the document will have at the very least used Word's 'Normal' Style.

As for the line numbering, it's not clear why you don't use Word's built-in line-numbering function.

As for the rest, without actually seeing the problem document, it can be difficult for anyone to diagnose the issue. Can you attach a document to a post with some representative data (delete anything sensitive)? You do this via the paperclip symbol on the 'Go Advanced' tab at the bottom of this screen.
