Word 2003 XML - Carriage Return

[cidu]

I am using Word 2003 new features to transform XML file to DOC file using XLST. Everything works great except Word ignored all the carriage returns winthin tags. I can see the carriage returns in WORDPAD without wrapping. But in WORD I can't see the returns. Anyone can help me find out why?
Much thanks,
Cidu

Try adding xml:space="preserve" to your <wordDocument> tag, i.e.

<xsl:template match="/"><w:wordDocument xml:space="preserve"



</w:wordDocument></xsl:template>

A paragraph is an element in WordML which is why Word ignores carriage returns when XML is transformed in Word

If you want to preserve line feeds, then you must create a paragraph element for each line or use <w:br/> which is a line break in Word.
