With APub 2.5.5, you can replace one paragraph format with the other using ‘Find and Replace’, as you are used to with Indesign.
In Indesign, the bold, italic or similar markup is retained.
With APub, this only works if you do this individually - in my case for the footnotes - (i.e. replace the paragraph format of the respective footnote with the desired one) AND click on ‘[...] apply local formatting’.
This does not work with the general ‘Search and replace’, as this option is missing there. Or am I missing something? How should I proceed in order not to provide 350 footnotes individually with a new paragraph format?
Thanks as always.

German version: Beim APub 2.5.5 lässt sich ja - wie von Indesign gewohnt - mittels "Suchen und Ersetzen" das eine Absatzformat durch das andere ersetzen.
Bei Indesign werden die Auszeichnungen fett, kursiv o.ä. dabei beibehalten.
Bei APub funktioniert das nur, wenn man - in meinem Fall bei den Fußnoten - das einzeln macht (also das Absatzformat der jeweiligen Fußnote durch das gewünschte andere ersetzt) UND "[…] lokale Formatierung übernehmen" anklickt.
Beim generellen "Suchen und Ersetzen" funktioniert das nicht, da hier diese Option fehlt. Oder übersehe ich etwas? Wie müsste ich vorgehen, um nicht 350 Fußnoten einzeln mit einem neuen Absatzformat zu versehen?
Vielen Dank schon mal wie immer.

That is the way it works. Here's how to do what you want, although it is a few more steps:

  1. Search for paragraph style = your footnote style and bold = true and replace with the same paragraph style and a character style for bold, such as Strong
  2. Search for paragraph style = your footnote style and italic = true and replace with the same paragraph style and a character style for italic, such as Emphasis
  3. Now search for paragraph style = your footnote style and replace it with whatever style you want

Cheers

Couldn't this simply be done via the Notes panel, specifying the document-wide format desired for all footnotes?
