Hi Lisa,
 
Try this: after you wrap a few elements, choose File > Import > Element 
Definitions. Check the Format Rule Overrides checkbox and click Import. 
Does that give you the correct formatting for each element? Thanks.

Subject: Unstructured to Structured: Question about retaining paragraph 
formats
 
Hello All,
 
FM10 – We are converting an unstructured Frame file to Structured. Due to 
unfortunate circumstances, we are not able to use a conversion table 
(sigh).
 
The issue is that during the hand tagging of this file, we have to wrap 
the text in the element tags in para tags to match the schema.  When we 
wrap the text, we lose the paragraph’s formatting properties. Everything 
turns to “body” and we have to reapply the format. 
 
We are able to manipulate the EDD somewhat but can’t stray from the 
structure. We’ve looked at Read\Write rules but they don’t appear to help 
in this case. We’ve also looked at using the “TextFormatRules, 
ElementPgfFormatTag” options but we have more than one paragraph style 
that goes to an individual element.
 
Does anyone have any other ideas?
 
BTW, everything works great when a new document is created using the 
template, EDD, etc.
 
Thank you in advance! 
 
Sincerely,
Lisa Freeman
