<pre>1. Open an existing document in Writer.
2. Open the Paragraph styles (e.g. via Modify) in the Styles panel
3. In the Font tab reduce the Western Text Font Family size
4. Hit OK
Expected result:
All paragraphs of the defined paragraph style should change to the new font
size.
Actual result:
Random parts of many paragraphs of the nominated style, including quite
commonly whole paragraphs or whole pages, do not change.
For a novel length document of 90 or so chapters, this causes a nightmare.
You can't use Clear Formatting on the whole document because it would wipe out
all italics or bold.
You can't select all text and change the font size to what you want because
Select All selects the chapter titles too.
A rough workaround is to select all, change the font size, use Find&Replace to
find all heading styles and manually set all headings to the size they should
be.
