Changing the paragraph style of text items

You can change the paragraph style that is applied to individual text items; for example, if you want to use different paragraph styles according to the information included in different text items.

Procedure

  1. In Write mode, select the text items whose paragraph style you want to change.
  2. Choose Edit > Notations > Text > Change Paragraph Style to open the Change Paragraph Style dialog. You can also choose this option from the context menu.
  3. Select a paragraph style from the Paragraph style menu.
  4. Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog.

Result

The paragraph style applied to the selected text items is changed. The formatting of the selected text items now follows the paragraph style, such as its font size, font style, or horizontal alignment.

Note

If you override the paragraph style of text in an individual text item or text frame, such as by making text bold, any changes you later make to corresponding parameters of the paragraph style are not applied to the overridden text. However, font size overrides are combined with the font size in the paragraph style.
