Put a circle (any color) over the square, select them and substract them (Object > Pathfinder > Substract)

Hi Anne-Marie,
I’m gled helping you. I too learn something new almost everyday by reading books about typography, design, following forums (like this one)…
BTW, I remove styles only when a customer ask for the source at the end of the job (not politely) and it was not part of the contract.

Hi Brad,
my opinion is that you can solve this only by using GREP. You can foind on Facebook a froup named “The Treasures of GREP” where you can ask the members to help you solve the problem.

No, Anne-Marie, you are wrong. Please, follow these steps:

1. Select all paragraph styles;
2. Click on the Recycle bin to delete them;
3. Choose “Apply to All”;
4. In “and replace with:” choose “No paragrapgh style.

Now you will get “Preserve formating”.

I ususally use these values:

Right indent 12 mm
Last line indent -12 mm

I always delete all styles that are not defined by me using “Preserve Style Formating”.

Have you tried to save the Word file as RTF?
