The right way to do it is to have all paragraph and character tags have the same names. Then you can just import formats without deleting anything.
If things aren't so well organized: To change all format B to format A, removing format B from catalog: - change Paragraph Tag A to Ax, Update All, OK - change Paragraph Tag B to A, Update All, OK - change Paragraph Tag Ax to A, Update All, OK - Update All (again), OK, Remove Overrides To change all format B to format A, leaving format B in catalog: - save a scratch copy of document with a different name - change Paragraph Tag B to A, Update All, OK - open scratch copy - return to original document - File / Import / Formats, select scratch copy, make sure Paragraph Formats (or Character Formats) and Other Format/Layout Overrides are checked, click Import On Tue, Apr 12, 2016 at 12:48 AM, Studio Smalbro <[email protected]> wrote: > What is the best way to replace on template with another using only > FrameMaker 12? > Can it be done bookwide? > > As of now I manually delete all tags and formats and do an Import Formats, > and it works, but it is cumbersome and prone to errors.
