One quick approach is to delete all the tags in the catalog and then use

Note, though, that only tags actually in use will be created.  Details

RE: Simplifying a FM12 document

[A Craig]

I would look into the Silicon Prairie tools (very cheap but they are an
invaluable addition to your toolbox - I wouldn't be without them).

 

For example, you can use the Para tool to delete all unused Para tags from a
document or book. You can also use the tool to rename existing Para tags as
required.

 

You can get the same tool for Chars, Tables, etc.

This could be very tedious, so I'm hoping that you all can help.

1) I have a document that has a paragraph catalog that is far more extensive
than I need (added to over the years and never cleaned up). I'd like to
reduce it to a more manageable list. 

2) I want to be able create a few special paragraph tags that would be used
only in the eBook output of the document. For example, I would have an
"eBody" for eBook body text that, for the eBook, would replace all
paragraphs tagged with the "Body" tag. 

Is there a way to do this relatively quickly or is it as tedious as I'm
afraid that it could be?

I do it the way Robert defines.

I have two template documents, with all the same tags by name, but the tags
are defined differently.

Depending on how I want the finished book to look, I import all the formats
from the applicable template document into the entire book.

Using a template document also makes it possible to determine the impact of
a para tag change before rolling it out to the entire book.

One quick and easy way to do that is to have two files containing the
tags that are different. Use the *same* tag names but different
formats. Import the eBook tags before you generate an eBook, then
import the regular tags afterwards.

Simplifying a FM12 document

[tom . beiswenger]

This could be very tedious, so I'm hoping that you all can help.

Two issues:

1) I have a document that has a paragraph catalog that is far more 
extensive than I need (added to over the years and never cleaned up). I'd 
like to reduce it to a more manageable list.

2) I want to be able create a few special paragraph tags that would be

paragraphs tagged with the "Body" tag.

Is there a way to do this relatively quickly or is it as tedious as I'm
