      i am having problems with my paragraph styles. they are set to normal but as soon as i put the cursor in a paragraph and select the paragraph style i want, it converts the paragraph to italic, even though this is not how the paragraph style is set up. any ideas? it's getting pretty frustrating deitalicizing everything!

      By “normal” you mean roman type, right? Are you importing a word file? Does it come in roman when you first flow it in, and then changes to italic when you select the paragraph style?

      If you were flowing in a file and everything came in italic, I'd probably guess that you had a italic character style sheet activated when you flowed in the type. But am not sure about just clicking in the paragraph and having it turn to italic when selecting the proper style sheet.

      Can you give any more info?

      It could be a nested style in the paragraph style – right click (cmd click) the para style in the paragraph panel and edit options for the style. Go to Drop Caps and nested style and make sure there's nothing being applied.

      You should also check that there are no character styles applied (as docubud mentioned).
