Re: [docbook-apps] round tripped

[aamehl <aamehl@actcom.net.il>]

Further comments:

1. I used the template and it worked but I saw no para style in the word
template is normal the correct style?
2. I didn't see and equivelent for entry in the word template. My
company has a table text style
3. in the word side I didn't see a style for graphic or example.
4. On the word side how do I add a table so that it translates correctly
into docbook?

Thanks
Aaron
