Assuming that you have a character tag around the cross-refs, e.g. one named "SpecialLinkColor" that turns text to Magenta: In MIFBrowser, or in a text editor, you'd be looking first for the section called "FontCatalog", which is the MIF-speak term for the Character tags catalog. Then look at the properties that are listed within the FontCatalog for the "Font" that has the FTag name of "SpecialLinkColor". So for example if SpecialLinkColor chartag is only supposed to change the color of the text it's applied to, the only property of the tag should be "FColor = 'Magenta" [along with the default properties of the FLocked= and FSeparation=] There should be nothing else like FFamily=xx or FSize=xx. If there are other properties like FSize, then that means that the character tag is applying all of those properties to the text. If this is the case then would need to change the character tag to only apply the color (or whatever) property. Changing a character tag takes a little more finesse, so let's start with just determining if there are character tags applied to the text and then what the character tag properties are, then we'll address how to globally change it to apply only the one property rather than the font size etc etc. BIG reminder, please be sure to make a good backup of your files before creating the MIF or looking at it in a text editor, so that "inevitable things" don't go bump.
