Reply To: Paragraph style management and naming issue

Thanks for the help guys, all your suggestions have been very helpful.

If you manually apply character styles with only a 'bold' and apply it to a paragraph style, it doesn't override the paragraph style. I knew there was a simpler way of doing it because I always thought paragraph styles would override the character styles. I have tested it out and it works like a charm!

The advantage of naming the styles in abbreviated form such as 'TX' or 'TXW' is that it is easily seen and simple to remember. But I can also see the problem because only the person who made the document know what they represent. Labelling them as levels may be the option to use to overcome this.
