In the test files I set up, the character tag I used was Emphasis (the default one in my installation of Frame), which changed to angle to Italic. In the legacy file I'm looking at, the character tag uses a different font altogether. So, even when applied with a character tag, bold or italic formatting does not come through on the x-ref. A different font, however, will. Perhaps this is what Shlomo was trying to explain and I just didn't get it.

Milan, You wrote: File A has a paragraph. Some text in this paragraph is formatted with a character tag. In File B, I create a $paratext type x-ref to bring in this paragraph. The character formatting, however, doesn't appear. Files A and B have indentical formats, etc. (imported from A into B just to make sure). I'm looking at some legacy document in which the character formatting does come across in the x-ref'd text, but I can't see how to make it happen in my File B. What can I check to see where the difference is between the two? In the context of cross-references, $paratext ignores character formatting present in the source paragraph text, except superscript, subscript and font family properties, which are retained only if applied through a character tag.
