If you want to get rid of overrides en masse (and indiscriminately), you 
can import formats from the current document into itself, selecting 
Remove Other Format/Layout Overrides.  (No Undo; back up files first!)

There are also inexpensive plug-ins from Silicon Prairie that will 
remove char/pgf overrides file- or book-wide.
