And further, that building block is only needed in order to terminate a previously specified character format. E.g., for variable definitions like this: 

	<BigUglyFont>Acme</> anvil

You don't need to specify the default paragraph font at the beginning of a variable; it's applied automatically. 

Specifying it explicitly does no harm in FM (AFAIK), but maybe it trips up RH. It may be grasping at straws, but worth checking out, IMHO.
