<paragraph role="heading" level="1" xml-lang="en-US">Guidelines</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">Not every feature in %PRODUCTNAME Writer is supported by LaTeX. To avoid unexpected
results follow these guidelines.</paragraph>
<list type="unordered">
<listitem>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US"><emph>Page styles</emph>: %PRODUCTNAME Writer offers a sofisticated
page style scheme, where every page style can define another style to be used for the next page.
You can thus have something like Style A → Style B → Style C.
In LaTeX this is only possible in the first step of a page sequence:
The example above will produce Style A → Style B → Style B in LaTeX.
You should beware of this when you design your page styles. Note that explicit change of page style with
<emph>Insert - Manual break</emph> is not affected by this limitation.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">In LaTeX the same page geometry is used for all pages. The dimensions are
taken from the first page of your document.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">Do not create headers and footers with more than one line of text,
these will not be exported correctly to LaTeX.</paragraph>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US"><emph>Background color</emph>: Background color is currently not supported
except in table cells. You should avoid using background color elsewhere.</paragraph>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US"><emph>Graphics</emph>: Anchor graphics to paragraph or to character if you
want a floating graphic. If you want the graphic to be a part of the text flow, anchor it to character. Do not anchor
graphics to page as this will make the graphics turn up the wrong place in your document.
You are advised not to wrap text around graphics as this is not exported to LaTeX anyway.</paragraph>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">Also, do not use drawing objects inserted directly in the text (using the
Drawing toolbar). These will not be converted to LaTeX.
If you need to insert a drawing, insert an embedded Draw object (<emph>Insert - Object</emph>).</paragraph>
</listitem>
<listitem>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US"><emph>Tables</emph>: Avoid using cells spanning several rows, as this
is currently not supported. Cells spanning several columns are fully supported.</paragraph>
</listitem>
</list>
<paragraph role="paragraph" xml-lang="en-US">In general you should be aware that not all formatting is exported. The export of formatting
depends on the selected LaTeX format.</paragraph>
