Don't convert to notebook layout view!

[Nate Goldshlag]

Converting existing Word documents to notebook layout view will
completely screw up your fonts and formatting. Beware. Perhaps
somebody can figure out how to deal with this, but for me it makes
notebook layout a useless feature. Feeling like I've given Microsoft
money for nothing...

Guess the warning that pops up telling you that some formatting may be
lost wasn't enough of a heads up?

If you format using styles, it should be easy to reapply the style in
Normal view. If you then want to ensure that all of the conversions are
removed, you may then want to copy all but the last paragraph mark to a
new document.
