I'm having similar frustrations with Word paragraph tabs overriding InDesign paragraph tabs. I would ideally like something that retains all the other Word formatting but forces InDesign's tabs to override those that come in when Word files are imported. I use the same paragraph style names in Word and InDesign and it works OK apart from paragraph tabs getting screwed up. In the meantime, I've tried Peter Kahrel's script which works up to a point but I would also like to keep the font as well as the style, e.g. create a character style for 'Mathematical Pi 1' where 'Mathematical Pi' is the font and '1' is the style. As it stands, I cannot include the font name in the character style automatically. I'm a total novice as far as scripting is concerned. Hopefully someone can give me some hints!
