Happily it doesn’t seem to be happening often. From time to time it happens here as well, and almost every time it is because people are pasting in text from MSOffice or elsewhere that carries unseen formatting that breaks the XML, as much as we try and protect it.

We hear ‘well, I, er, dunno, but it was working one minute, and not the next… pardon? Paste form word, no, I don’t think so, er, shouldn’t I do that then, oh, I didn’t know that…’ etc, so it’s hard to replicate things and prevent them happening again.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D"> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">If it happens, the first thing to look at is whether data and preview.xml files are the same.
