When I create a character style with font and attribute and click OK, it disappears from the drop down list when I exit or open a new document.  Is there something special you need to do to save the Style?  I'm using Windows 10/64 bit and Affinity 1.7.3.

Please advise, thank you

Yes, styles are only valid for the document in which they were created.

From any kind of Affinity native document, actually: .afphoto, .afdesign, .afpub.

Not when saved as to be standard ones, which preserves their further usage then among app closing or creating new docs etc. Also no need to import then, since its as default there.
