    You have tried to delete the conversion of a dominant format.

    How to fix this error?

    When an MS Word document template is generated, the format information
    from the style sheet, the leader of the RTF file, is evaluated. All
    characters and paragraphs marked as dominant in the conversion are
    entered in this style sheet with the formats they have in SAPscript.
    Several SAPscript formats can be mapped to a single Word format,
    however the formatting information is taken from the format which has
    the "dominant" flag. For this reason, there can only be one dominant
    source format which is used to create the document template under a
    particular target format name.
    In the case involved here, you wanted to delete this specific SAPscript
    format with the flag "dominant". First change this attribute and then
    select another format which is to be given the dominant attribute.
