Default formatting paragraphs

Have you tried using Undo? If you've just run AutoFormat over the document,
a single Undo should do it, but check the Undo list to see how many steps
you need to Undo.

These suggestions didn't work. Not only am I missing hundreds of tabs, but
many blocks of text are in a new font than before. What could I have done

in
the formatting menu to get this result? How do I undo it, or make the
paragraphing uniform once again. Thanks in advance if you can help me!!

Is Undo an option? With a document that large, it might not be.

After getting that result, I sure hope you either a) saved the file

using a
new name or b) closed the document without saving the changes. If a and

b
aren't your salvation, do you have Always Create Backup Copy enabled
(Tools - Options - Save)? If so, then check the document folder for

files
whose names begin with Backup...

I went into the Autoformatting menu to fix a problem and somehow

managed to
erase about half of my paragraph indents in a 200 page document.

Please
Help!
