Dear Maintainer,

*** Reporter, please consider answering these questions, where appropriate ***

   * What led up to the situation?
I am creating a 100-page directory builing it up in stages from smaller files. Each of
the smaller files has its own unique styles. I may not import all the pages at once. e.g.,
I have sections in the importing file that each hold a portion of the pages in the
imported file.

   * What exactly did you do (or not do) that was effective (or ineffective)?
I import multiple pages from file 1 into file 2 using the Page Import function, creating
new pages after the current page.

   * What was the outcome of this action?
If I only import 1 or 2 pages, everything works (although I do have to delete duplicated
styles if this was not the first import from file 1). If I import more than 2 pages, the
styles are all set to "default paragraph style" (not no style) begining with the 3rd
imported page.

   * What outcome did you expect instead?
I expect imported pages to keep their styles no matter how many pages are imported.
