Bold Type Inverted

[koala824 at Comcast]

One of my word documents opened with bolding inverted -- that is, type that
is supposed to be bold no longer is, while type that was not bold has become
bold. Anybody have any ideas?

This was very informative information and helped explain a lot of things I
have noticed over the years. Unfortunately, the 'bold inversion' problem did
not result from copying text, and occurred, as described, in all the
document text, including headers and footers. The document had not been
altered, although it sat unopened for 2-3 months. Thank you for replying.

Perhaps a style has been modified to include bold formatting and then
someone applied "not bold" as direct formatting to text? Check the settings
of the style. In particular, you may want to investigate the properties of
the Normal style.
