I find that exporting to Word format (.docx) from oo3 retains the outline level. (Switch to View>Outline in Word).

The inescapable architectural limit is, of course, that OO3 supports an arbitrary level of indentation, whereas "Heading Level 9" is Word's deepest level of indentation. Anything deeper in OO3 is bound to be flattened.

I just want to add my two cents. What has kept me from adopting OO in the past is that it does not play real well with MSWord. I have 20 years invested in Word and need to be able to go both ways preserving outline levels, to be able to make the switch. Like it or not, it is a Word world!

importing from Outline Numbered Styles, cumbersome but doable: See my post on another thread if that is what you are looking for...
