Found by comparing EPA's .doc templates with Word for Windows.
Before: custom tab stops in .doc files were skipped, so centred titles,
right-aligned dates and dot leaders set with tabs lost their alignment;
and a section mark (0x0C) at a section's end became a page break inside
a paragraph, so the file's sections (continuous breaks, footers) were
lost and every section break started a new page.
After: sprmPChgTabsPapx and sprmPChgTabs are read in styles and
paragraphs (removed stops clear inherited ones; each added stop keeps
its alignment and leader), and sprmPChgTabs' one-byte size is decoded
per [MS-DOC] (it was read as two bytes, swallowing the sprms after it).
A section mark at a section's end now ends that section's last
paragraph, so the section's properties and footers are kept. Both EPA
.doc templates in the comparison set now have Word's page count.
