Hi Suzanne

saving it as a web page & then resaving it did the trick - however, now my
"bold" is confused - all my styles with bold in the definition aren't and
all the ones without bold in the definition are.

if i change them so they look right, they revert to being wrong again when i
update fields. I've tried reattaching the template - copying the template
styles over the document styles but aren't getting anywhere fast.

any ideas?

Cheers

What happens if you select the problem paragraphs and Ctrl+Q?

Hi Suzanne

thanks for getting back to me ..

okay, i have a heading 2 style with bold defined as an attribute
when i apply it to a paragraph the paragraph isn't bold

if i change the heading 2 style to not bold - then the paragraph goes bold
((normal is defined without bold))

ctrl + Q doesn't make a difference.

Additionally my TOC styles will stay bold no matter what i put the style
definition to (or if i can get them not bold, the minute i F9 they go bold
again)

any ideas?

Cheers
JulieD
 
Ctrl+Q was a bum steer. Ctrl+Spacebar is what you need. This will remove the
direct font formatting, which is what is causing the boldness to "flip" and
also what is causing the TOC to pick up bold, because the bold is direct
formatting.

Hi Suzanne

thanks for this do you know of any way to do this easily for only the
heading styles .. the document is 50 pages long and i don't relish having to
go through the whole thing re-applying direct formatting to the body text

edit / replace didn't seem to work.

Cheers

If you have Word 2002 or above, you can (with "Keep track of formatting"
enabled on the Edit tab of Tools | Options) use Select All in the Styles and
Formatting task pane to select all paragraphs in a specific style. In
earlier versions, you can use Find and Replace to find the specific style
(leave the "Find what" box empty and just select the style using More:
Format: Style: Heading x) and replace it with "Default Paragraph Font"
(Format: Style: DPF)
