On Drawings We Receive i have to change our text to romans with a width of 0.75. So i set up a text style and add all text to it. Now most of them change but others don't & i need to double click the text & manually click the drop down in "text formatting" and change it to romans. Is there a way to automatically change them all without having to click every rogue piece of text & change their settings. This also happens with font colours as well.

Cheers

Some MText objects may have internal formatting - control characters switching the font, width, color, etc.
 
You can get rid of these characters globally - see MTextCF:
