Hi Charles,

What version of Rev do you use?
Which platform?

Here it's working:
First, you set all textfont specs of any field, card and stack to empty.
You paste a text in any field.
You select the text and set its textfont to "Use Owner's Font" (empty)
You select the lines you want to be in another font as Courier and set them. Now you set the textfont of the stack to any font and all lines the textfont of which were empty adopt the specified font (your 9-12 lines included).
You can change the textfont stack and it's going to work.
You can save and reopen the stack: all is perfect.

Rev 2.6 Mac OS X10.4.1

Yes, that's what I'm doing. However, as I said, the text _after_ the specified-font text does _not_ switch to the altered owner's font.

Let me clarifiy: a field contains a dozen lines, let's say; the first six and last four have been created using Palatino, with Palatino as the stack font, so there's no font specification on any of those lines. Lines 7-8 have had their Text Formatting properties altered so their font is specified as Courier. Now in the main stack's script I insert the line "set the textfont of me to 'Arial'" and save and close the stack and its substacks and reopen. Now on that example card, in that field, lines 1-6 are Arial, 7-8 are Courier (all as expected) -- but lines 9-12 are still in Palatino.

I'm beginning to think this is a bug. I'll file a BZ on it. Any ideas on workarounds meanwhile? That don't involve iterating over all lines in all fields on all cards??

Best Regards from Paris,

Eric Chatonet.
