If you create instances of all the pgf formats you want to change, one
after the other, you can select all those pgfs. Then in Paragraph
Designer, change the font family and click Commands > Global Update
Options. In the dialog, select All Matching Tags in Selection and click
Update. 

I only know of one shortcut way of creating all the pgf instances:
Enhance (www.sandybrook.com/enhance) has a Generate Format Samples
command that does exactly that. I think you can download a free trial. 

But are you sure that's the proper solution? If you're delivering web
content, the Minion Web regular, and especially italic, faces will be
easier to read than the Pro versions.
