Imposes roman base font on text, either on a selected paragraph or across all paragraphs of a particular style.
This tool will most commonly be used when scribing titles or heads that use italic or bold rendering to indicate their structure.
- Impose on Selected Paragraphs: Imposes roman base font on selected paragraphs. If a paragraph is only partially selected, roman base font is imposed on the entire paragraph.
- Impose by Paragraph Style: Opens the Change Base Font window, which imposes roman base font globally on selected paragraph styles. Select whether to impose it on bold base or italic base fonts. Then select styles from the list on the left and click the Add button. All paragraphs that use the selected styles will have a roman base font imposed when this cleanup is run. Use the Document Scope checkboxes to indicate whether the base font should be changed in the main text, endnotes, or footnotes.
Establishing a roman base font involves a series of character style reversals. After running the tool, all affected paragraphs should be reviewed to confirm the results.
