Word For Mac Changing text format in Master Doc

[JudithW]

Help: how do I changed the weird formatting: all my text is left justified, italics and graphics gone.

Never mind: if anyone reads this and needs to know what to do:  while in Outlining mode: close the box on the right side of the top tool bar that says "Close Outline View." This will display the master text and original documents in the original word format.
