Hi Aditya,

I had the same problems in past in solved them by myself. The problems
are dutch commands in the style-files and a typo.

I attached my corrected style-files, because it is faster to replace
send you the files than I need to look where I made corrections.

The files did not correct the problem with the backgrounds in the
headers Vit has mentioned.
