Same font displays differently

[Steve W]

After OCR/scanning some pages, I converted the fonts using cntrl-A to TNR,
and its displays differently in two parts of the combined document. the
fainter one is between regular and boldface. I cannot get a consistent
display, even with styles. (Yes, it shows the same throughout in the menu.)
Is it something from the scan/OCR process?

Have you confirmed that the type is the same SIZE throughout? The same
color?

Even with the best OCR software the process is a somewhat hit or miss and
there can be lots of formatting anomalies that can take ages to resolve
individually. It might be better to select the lot, apply normal style, then
CTRL+Space and CTRL+Q to drop everything back to the default normal style,
then format the document with styles to produce the results you require.

Thank you, Graham. I'm not sure what that does, but it worked!

The two commands reset the font and paragraph settings to the underlying
settings. i.e they remove manual formatting.
