You needn't worry too much about the difference in constructors. In many cases you can apply a font using either a string or an object:

myNewCharacterStyle.appliedFont = "Times";
myNewCharacterStyle.appliedFont = app.fonts.item ("Times");

The second one always works, so it's good practice to assign objects rather than strings (that goes for all objects, not just strings). So you should be able to do this:

myNewCharacterStyle.appliedFont = myTextStyleRange.appliedFont
