Hidden text is interfering with heading vertical alignment
Stefan, my apologies for not making myself clear. I appreciate your clarification.
Please find attached a document created from the (very pared down) template, including three hidden Instruction styles.
I have found an inelegant workaround, to format the paragraphs as appropriate and apply a hidden font style only. This fixes the vertical misalignment of the heading numbering and text, but means that there are extra paragraph spaces between headings, and some visible dummy text.
To show this clearly, I've duplicated the text and applied the workaround to the second half.
I am very grateful for your consideration of this problem.
Thanks for the sample. I certainly see what you see: something peculiar is happening with the document when the hidden text is not displayed. I have asked a couple of fellow MVPs to have a look, and nobody has been able to work around the issue so far. This may be a bug with recent versions of Word.
