Equations get bold when saving a document

Anonymous

I have a technical report. It contains equations made by the equation tool. These equations (eq:s) are put in 1*2 tables where the eq:s are in the left cell and the eq number in the right cell.

The equations automatically get bold when creating them, then I make them not bold.

If I only make the eq:s not bold, close the document and open it again they are still not bold. But if I now change something else in the document and then save, the next time I open it the eq:s are bold again...

Why? And what can I do? I go crazy...

    In the table design toolbox, uncheck "header row" and whatever else is checked by default. I think header row is the culprit.

    No, it's the equations that go bold, the numbers, brackets and so on, not the captions (they stay not bold).

    And "Automatically update document styles" is not enabled for the template.

    Any other suggestion?

    Assuming the captions are in the Caption style, perhaps you have

    "Automatically update document styles" enabled for the template?
