How do I get auto text to enter the font that I am now using rather than the
original font that I was using when I set up the auto text?

If you include the paragraph mark at the end of the entry when saving, then
the entry is formatted in the original paragraph style. The answer therefore
is not to include the paragraph mark when saving entries that you wish to
adopt the style of the target location.

If I include a paragraph mark at the end of the entry, I do not releaze that
I do. I do not see any type of "mark"

Press CTRL+Shift+* and you will see the paragraph mark. It looks a bit like
a backward P.

Or, if you actually need to include a paragraph mark, do all of the
formatting (including font) using styles that are already in the destination
document. That way the formatting being used in the destination should still
control.
