Formatting Novel Back to Default Style

[membarock]

I wrote a novel in Storyist with formatting designed for self-publishing. I have since received a full manuscript request from a literary agent and now I need to revert the entire novel back to Storyist's default novel style (Courier font, # sign in place of line spaces, etc...). Is there a way to do this in one fell swoop instead of having to do it all manually?

Hi membarock,

Yes, you can do this as follows:

1. Position the cursor in the file you want to change.
2. Choose Format > Style > Change Stylesheet > Novel Stylesheet.
3. In the dialog that appears, choose the styles you want mapped to the novel styles (they may be the same).
4. Click Change Stylesheet.

Hi, Steve. Thank you for responding. Unfortunately, I followed your advice to the letter and it didn't work. Nothing happened when I clicked Change Stylesheet. The formatting remained the same. I even tried highlighting all of the text and went through it again with the same result.
