Re: Need extra text in ODT export of headers

[Christian Moe <mail@christianmoe.com>]

Hi, Jambunathan,

I was going to tell Dan the same thing, but for some reason, the below
doesn't work for me with outline numbering. Can you confirm that it
works for you?

When I try, the paragraph styles from the template *do* get applied
(tested by coloring some headings), but the custom outline numbering
does not.

To see if it ought to, I also tried to "load styles" from the OTT
into an ODT document, but again, custom outline numbering did not follow
along, so I'm not sure if it should be expected to work with Org ODT
export either.

Yours,
Christian
