In a very big document in xpress 6.5 I need to change the leading of a lot of paragraphs.
I want to make this in automatic but is not possible to find the leading of a portion of a text with the find/change command of xpress.

Can I make this with a script for macintosh? Where I can find aid?
Help me please! :-(

If you have style sheets applied you can make a glogal change to it which will apply to all paragraphs effected.

example of stye sheet stucture.

ChapterHeading
SubHeading
BodyText
BodyTextFullout
Linebreak

Press F11 to show the style sheet window...

Unlucky I have not used the sheets of style :-(
 
I suggest if you have to go through the entire document, make a style sheet with the correct leading and attributes and then go through the docs and apply it where needed. This is not a global thing, but is faster than selecting a paragraph and apply one paragraph at a time. You can add a quick key to the new paragraph and that will help it go faster too.
