Default delete text based on font

Try this:

Open Find-Replace (Ctrl-H)
put the cursor in the Find box
click More
then click Format and choose Font
in the top box (Latin text) choose the font you want to delete
do nothing in the Replace box (be sure it's empty)
click Find Next, and then Replace (to be sure it works right)
click Replace All

Thank you. It worked.

Just a note for anyone else, after i selected the font to look for i kept the search text fields empty. on submit all the text in the document of the font selected was then deleted.
