I am still confused why ctrl-m is removed. A bit off topic, but was that 
a bug? Is there a very good reason to do this? Or was it an action I 
better not label?

Lessons learned:
1. By default, LO uses "Default Text" for formatting: Make sure you use Text
Body for parapgraphs
2. Make sure you do no not change formatting locally, eg. changing the font
size: Use Styles for this
3. To remove local changes, select the text, and hit CTRL+M ("Clear Direct
Formatting"). If the document contains a ToC, do not select it, as it will
prevent LO from performing that action.

It does as it says: it updates the *currently selected paragraph* 
according to changes made through direct formatting.


Say you've selected a paragraph that is in Text Body paragrah style. You 
set its font DejaVu Sans 14. If you click the button, the underlying 
Text Body style is set accordingly, thus every paragraph with this style 
is immediately updated.

Good to know, thanks for the tip (that's Format > Clear Direct Formating,
CTRL+M).

Is there a way to turn all paragraphs from Default Style to Text Body in one
go? Having to do this for all paragraphs over 200 pages doesn't sound like
fun.
 You can do this with search and replace.

Thanks but I still don't get it:
1. Selected paragraph set as "Default Style" in Arial Unicode MS 11
2. Styles > Edit Styles
3 . Changed to Liberation Serif 11
4. Hit "Apply": The other paragraphs set as "Default Style" aren't updated
(ie. still in Arial Unicode MS 11)
5. Hit OK
6. Styles > Update Selected Style: No change.

Regardless, is there a way to have LO Writer change all paragraphs set in
"Default Style" to "Text Body"? That's my main issue at this point.

Possibly first you need to make sure that there is no direct formatting 
applied to the paragraphs as this will override the style setting.
Note that clearing direct formatting will clear any bolding/italics and 
super/sub scripts.

Thanks. 

I did copy/paste text from elsewhere (OCR) but used the Pure Text utility
when importing to make sure I only got unformatted text.

However, at some point, I made the wrong decision to use Arial Unicode MS 11
instead of Liberation Serif 12 for paragraphs. It shows when reading the
EPUB on my e-reader (the font is bigger:  https://postimg.cc/4Y9hv6B3
  ).

On closer scrutinity, some paragraphs are Default Text while others are Text
Body: Is there a way to turn all "Default Style" to "Text Body"? This option
seems unavailable in the Find & Replace dialog.
