I ask this because these attributes are defined within the character styles.
For example, the character style named "Source Text" is defined, "out of the

or Subscript), English (UK) and so on.

Are you shure that these attributes should not be definded within
paragraph styles? Beeing german I'm not aware of the typographic
differences between US and GB.
I use a german documant-language in my default-template and from time to
time I added some english variant of para-style because of this annoying
„german quoting“ in english text.
All styles are organized hierarchically. Turn on the hierarchical view
of the stylist. Each style inherits all the properties of its parent
style. When you need a variant of an existing style, simply call
"New..." from the parent's context-menu and change the properties that
need to be different (font-language in this case). This way you can
change other properties of the parent, passing the properties to all
children unless they are defined otherwise explicitly. The
"Standard"-button, at the bottom/right corner in the format-dialog
resets the properties of the selected tab to those of the parent. Tab
"Organizer" shows all properties, different from the parent.
This way you just need to type a new style name and change one property
in order to get a variant of an existing style, while keeping all other
properties managable through the parent.
