Charles,
Is the goal of your script to change the default font in text
fields, not only before but also after font and style tags?
The reason for inserting font tags in substacks may be that
substacks inherit all font and style information from the main
stack. If you change the font of the main stack and restore
htmltext that doesn't have a font tag, Rev inserts a font tag to
make sure that it looks the same as before. The solution
probably is inserting a font tag yourself before restoring the
htmltext.
I believe one should either use default font and style info of
objects or set the font and style info of text within those
objects explicitly, rather than trying to do both.
Best regards,
Mark

a problem that I, for one, am about to give up on -- it's too far
inside Rev's guts for me to have any ideas left about fixing or even
working around it.

This works when it is called on the main stack of an app. When it is
called on a substack, it screws up. IN THE SUBSTACK ONLY, wherever
there's a *style* change, Rev inserts (right before the style tag) a
*font* tag, which hard-wires whatever *was* the default font before.
Therefore everything after the first style-tag in the field fails to
switch to the new default font. Why would this happen in the substack
and not the main stack?
