Please consider the sample script below.
If the "SmallCaps" style is created in the content part
then $t2 ("idem") appears in OOWriter as italicized
small-caps, but if the "SmallCaps" style is created in
the styles part then $t2 appears in OOWriter as
non-small-caps italics, i.e. styles defined in the
content part are additive but styles defined in the
styles part are not. The resulting office:text tree
in content.xml seems to look the same in both cases. I
guess this is by design, but is there any way to make
styles created in the styles part additive?
