Removing an unwanted character format from an entire paragraph

[Les Smalley]

The order of operations is critical - first select all the text and apply the default para font character style, then apply the default paragraph style, preferably from the paragraph catalog window by click on the desired tag.

As an aside to another poster, a tag is the FrameMaker  term for the name of a collection of formatting properties, which in other programs may be called a style.

Thanks, David. Unfortunately that didn't work. The new tag retained the 'f:*footnote ref' override. 'footnote ref' doesn't appear in the list of character tags - I've no idea where it came from. I tried adding it as a ch tag, then deleting it - that had no effect either.
