Re: [libreoffice-users] Font in Default Character Style

Mark,

Thank you. On further examination, I don't think the problem is with my 
default character style. I think what has happened is my default 
template is on its third or fourth generation, being inherited from the 
OOo days. Over the years, I customized it so much that I think I'm just 
now finding the "fruits" of all my past labors. Time to clean things up 
a bit, I think.
