Re: [Framers] Frame2015 (and 12) change paragraph format for paragraph format
Assuming I've understood correctly that you want to retag all paragraphs that are tagged as Normal to Body: 1. Tag a paragraph with the correct paragraph tag (the one you want to change TO, in this case, Body) 2. Open the Paragraph Designer 3. Commands > Global Update Option 4. Select All Properties and All Tagged 5. In the drop-down for All Tagged, select the name of the incorrect paragraph tag (the one you want to change FROM, in this case, Normal) 6. Click Update 7. Choose Retain or Remove Overrides (this depends on what you're doing) All paragraphs that were tagged as Normal will now be tagged as Body. Note that you have to do this on a file-by-file basis, but at least it's not on a paragraph-by-paragraph basis.

[Framers] Frame2015 (and 12) change paragraph format for paragraph format
Dear All, I'm using a set template to import Word into Frame and on occasion, Frame seems to be importing the Body paragraph format from Word as Normal, rather than transferring it into the Body format in Frame. Is there a way to get Frame to change one paragraph format into another, rather than just the obvious options of replacing it with a character format?
