Frank--

I'm sorry to say that there's no way to get at the default text formatting--for either a document or for the application--via scripting. (Well, I mean there's no official way--one can always resort to sleazy methods, such as using SendKeys to manipulate the user interface.<g>)

So, for now, you need to apply text formatting after you've created a text object. Paragraph and character styles can speed up this process considerably (as I expect you already know).

It's high on our list of features to cover in the next release.

Thanks,

Ole
