Deb, I think that updating the book should update the text insets in the book, as long as the settings are set up update automatically and to take on the container file's formatting.

The problem I am having is the main book files that contain the text insets is not auto updating the text insets. So when I open a file that contains a text inset it is still showing the old fonts size until I double click on it and tell the text inset to update. I have 9 manuals that use these text insets so I have many files to open, search for each text inset and then double click on the text inset to update.

What you *could* do is create a book file that contains all of the text insets, then import the new paragraph format into all of the files in this new book. To be precise you could take a document with the correct font size and delete all paragraph formats EXCEPT the format in question. Then when you import the paragraph formats from this modified document, you'll be importing just one paragraph format into the text insets. --Doug On 5/15/06, Deborah A Bruggeman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Good Morning > > I am working in a 500 page document that has roughly 200 text insets in it. > We have changed the font size on all the text insets.
