Amazing-- I have to test this and see if it works. I hadn't thought of doing a find/replace leaving the find and replace windows empty altogether and only specifying the font type and pt. But I just tried setting up such and find and replace and it seemed to accept it. I didn't execute it, but that would really change my life :-)


I'll make a test copy of my file, implement it, and see if it works.

In reply to your question, the punctuation marks in Nirmala font are not good so I have to switch them all out with Times Sanskrit punctuation. That I do via find/replace as well, but one has to be very careful with it especially with the directional quote marks, as sometimes the find/replace swaps out the wrong direction quote mark. It just takes time to do all this.

If you've already done that in your source documents, that's how they'll be imported, so that really shouldn't be an issue.
