I am doing some cleanup before exporting and I don't know much about FrameMaker....
I want to replace the paragraph format ABC with XYZ in every page, how would I do this?
I also have a paragraph format I want to delete and make it just a Normal paragraph in every page, I image it will be the same process as 1?
Your help is appreciated
Try this …
this copies the format to the clipboard
if you're in luck, FM may well read the current format from the cursor position; if not, type it in

Use the same technique to replace all occurrences of the style you want to delete (PQR, f'r instance) with another style, then delete PQR using the paragraph designer

Do you want all named ABC to be renamed to XYZ,
or do you just want XYZ to have the same formatting as ABC?
> I also have a paragraph format I want to delete and make it just a Normal paragraph ...
What does "Normal" mean?
Is that the name of a Paragraph Format? (which is not a default FM name)
There is no such concept as a "normal" (untagged, unnamed) format in FM.

Normal/<p>/<body> - The style used most frequently in the document. A plain paragraph without any formatting other than the default font and font size.
