Re: Updates on Style Handling in odf4j

Amit,

Dumping the style information is what the Odt2Text client
should do with 
the style information for demonstration purposes. The actual

implementation should not dump it but rather provide the
style 
information to clients in a structured way.

Our goal is to provide a library for interacting with ODF
documents, not 
a program that dumps odf documents to text files.
