As for paragraph styles, if you have the same styles in use in your
receiving document, the paragraphs should be formatted in the receiving
document's version of the style.

We need to copy large volumes of text from one document to another.

The original document has headers, footers, page numbers & more setup.

The original document has many chapters and may be 200 to 300 pages long.

We want to be aboe to copy the original document and keep italics, bolds,
underlines, etc but not copy the Headers, Footers, Page Number setup, etc.

How can we do this?

Ditto for Paragraph styles... Can we copy the text without the Paragraph
indention, space before & after... but retain the italics, bolds &
underlines?

thanks for any help.
