      In the example below I need the word Milluptia and the colon that follows in bold italic, plus a double space after the colon.

      Milluptia: qui que nest, coriaec tenimet ius quia veritio quam sit lam que estemqui acessim poreprat iniscit voluptia quibeat emolor rehendantur siminul laborrovid ex et que ditiati nullut volorerem. Inimo everiaspe et, ut ea aut reni sequaes sime pro ipiet occae aut maxim quibus et pedis aut expe volorerfero et as sus.

      I can get the bold italic with a nested style (using Nested Styles through 1 Word the colon also gets the style). How do I apply double space after the colon: could it be done with a second nested style (using tracking maybe) or with a Grep style? Thanks in advance for any help.

      Sorry, you cannot do a find and replace using the GREP style. To achieve things like this, you have to use the Find/Change feature either Text or GREP.

      What about a second nested style for the first space? You could have that second style be tracked (say 200 or something). It wouldn’t be two spaces, but instead it would be a tracked single space (to equal the width of two space bands).

      You could do:

      Bold Italic character style through 1 colon
      Tracking character style through 1 space
      None after that.
