Strange dotted line in text frames

[OveB]

Hi, I have placed a long (300+ pages) Word document in Publisher, and I have a strange dotted line appearing on many pages. Sometimes it can be deleted by deleting characters around it, but it mostly then just appears somewhere else. It can be in the middle of the text frame or at the end of it. I can see no strange characters in the original file where the dotted line appears in the Publisher file.
I attach two files: one screenshot showing the dotted line and one extract from the main file where I can see the dotted line at the end of page 2.
I have really tried to search for any info what this could be. Any help is appreciated!

Hi @OveB,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
It comes from your text style "Standard". You have added a dash line style to the Decorations section.

Great! Thanks a lot! I haven't added this. It must somehow been in the original word doc (not made by me) 👍

Look in the Text panel > Decorations, and if it's also in the Text style definition, update the style after.
