thanks. That is true. Many of them are formatting entries. What is the best
way to get them all into Times Roman 12, etc. Will doing a normal style for
the whole mss. do it? Is it possible to put a sample of my mss in these
questions?

I am doing so much revision that they will have to redo all codes anyway,
but
it is a mess to work with as every change I make tends to alter the fonts
,
etc. How do I get rid of all these styles?

Many
publishers use specific styles for their publishing program, used to
generate the printed pages of the book, and if the expected styles are
not
found it the final product may not be formatted correctly.

I have a file of a book of mine to revise from my publisher in MS Word
2003
.
It has more than 300 "CM" and other formatting styles in it, often with
different fonts and spacing from paragraph to paragraph. Is there an
easy
way
to put the whole file into just a few styles, like one new simple
normal
style and a few heading styles, without doing them all one by one?
thanks.
