I've always advised people to import Word files as plain text only, to avoid other problems I've seen (such as a char format named "Default P Format" [sic] applied to all the text in every para ;-), but this one is new to me. >Saving as MIF and then reopening and saving as *.fm resolved >the problem. This can be burdensome if you have lots of files to do. So we added it as a feature of the Mif2Go plugin; it's in the File menu as "Wash Via MIF". You don't need to buy Mif2Go to use it; just download the demo and install the plugin: http://www.omsys.com/dcl/download.htm It works on entire books as well as single files, way faster than you can do it by hand.
