Deas Jambunathan, I found the bug: Windows-Emacs was missing the libxml2 library. I got the libxml2-2.7.8.-w32-bin.zip, copied the content of /bin into Emacs' /bin directory and now the formatting works. I think it would be nice to have the level 0 node (title) formatted as

but that can probably done by using the style system. BTW: Freeplane messes the UTF-8 characters up when importing, that's why I use freemind.
