Text styles can be applied to text within your designs for efficiency and consistency.
About text styles
A text style is a set of one or more attributes which can be applied to text in bulk. Later, if you chose to modify a text style, any text which uses that style will update to conform to the changes you've made.
Text styles can be applied to text using the Text Styles, Paragraph or Character panels, the context toolbar or a custom keyboard shortcut.
Furthermore, if you have established a strict order for your text styles, using Next Style, you can apply an entire set of text styles to a story (or portion of a story) in one go.
If local formatting has been applied, this can be quickly removed using the Text Styles panel, leaving the currently applied text styles in place.
