Reply To: ID CC style for italic stripping out Roman on imported text

Ok, when I selected the entire document imported into ID and used the Find/Replace to change it to Character Style “regular” it worked.

Now when I apply my Paragraph style the Roman words stayed Roman. Phew[mmild expletive compared to what I really said here]. I had tried all the other things in that article but I had NOT applied a character style of “Regular” to the entire document from the get go.

I have been formatting books for over 20 years and using ID since it changed from PM, why suddenly is this a big issue where it has not been before?

Thank a million for the help, so glad to have experts out there to push me just a little bit further.
