I have a document in which some spaces have an Expanded font attribute while others have a Condensed font. I'm not sure how it got this way although I think it might have been created by OCR or something. If I hilite the entire word the attribute shows as Normal-but if I hilite just the space I can see (and change) the true setting. But I don't really want to select all hundred or more spaces indivudally.


Is there a way to reset this attribute globally?

You could simply select the entire range and press Ctrl-Spacebar. That will remove all formatting (incl. bold/italic) that is not part of the underlying Style definition for the paragraphs concerned.
