Reply To: Character Styles Question…

Ok, so I created:

Character Style that just has my font treatment: Font, Size, color, bold.

Then I created a paragraph style that was just the default style except for the nested character style information:

Paragraph style was:
1. None through one space (put the space in the “word” field)
2. Bold up to open parenthesis

A. Repeated steps 1 & 2 5 times to compensate for the amount of sizes we carry
B. Created a test paragraph of info on a blank page using only single named sizes (i.e. Petites, Women’s, Misses.)
C. Highlighted the paragraph and applied the Paragraph style….

….worked great!!!

I did try the same paragraph test with two word size names (Petite Short, Women’s Tall) and I do run into the issue Anne-Marie mentioned. The second word changes to use the character style of “Bold”. I don’t think this will be an issue since the “Size Name” field in the database has its own character style assigned to it, and the “Size Range” is going to be using the paragraph style above assigned to it.

Thanks for the help Anne and Dwayne. Hopefully my database will play nice and this will be easy. haha.
