Easiest way to update all paragraphs in a book

[Ann Zdunczyk]

If Times New Roman 10 pt is the font for all of the Paragraph Tags then
easiest way is to open the Paragraph Designer. Click in the Margin of your
document. Make sure it is the margin and none of the text blocks. In the
Paragraph Designer change the font and the Point Size. Click update all and
the Global Update Option window opens. Select Default Font Properties Only
and All Paragraphs and Catalog Entries. This will change them ALL.

How about the following:
Make a copy of the file, and delete all par tags except for the one you want
to change. Make the change, then import the par tags from that file (which
should only include one style), to all the files in the book.

I never tried this for par tags, but do these often for a specific variable
or conditional text.
