Default remove styles but keep formatting?

I have 27 documents which need editing. In each of them, there is a style applied to parts throughout the document. It is italicized and red. Because of the conversion I must do to translate it into a database, I need to make all the paragraph breaks into line breaks. The problem is that when I do that, every bit of the text becomes italicized.

Is there a way to replace the paragraph breaks (^p) with line breaks (^l) and not have the formatting automatically change? I still want the original color and italics to stay, but I don't want them to spread to the rest of the document.

I would completely remove the style from each section, but that would cause me to have to go back through the entire document and manually re-italicize each part.

Help?
