<pre>Description:
When exporting to a Microsoft Word document, there is an extra format character
inserted at the beginning of a heading. Depending on how you view the document,
it is a heading or a number.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Libreoffice Writer and write some text. Press Control+1 to make it a
heading level 1.
2. Save two coppies of the document, one as DOCX and the other as ODT.
3. If you open both documents in LibreOffice Writer and select preview in web
browser, there is a 1. at the beginning of each heading you insert which
shouldn't be there in the word dOCX. This is not visible when previewing the
ODT.
4. If you open the docx in word, there is a bullet that is interpreted before
the line. You cannot see this visually. I noticed it because I use a screen
reader. Even though the bullet is invisible, the screen reader reads the bullet
semantics from the document for some reason. You can notice it visually by
moving the cursor to the left of the first physical character in the line. This
only works in Microsoft Word.
Actual Results:
These bits of evidence make me think that some extraneous formatting is being
exported when saving as docx.
Expected Results:
NO bullet or number when exporting.
Reproducible: Always
User Profile Reset: Yes
