Thanks for your suggestion. I still must not be doing something right or have setting that aren't set correctly. I changed the character spacing, size, etc to what it should be but when I use Ins-f to find out info I am still hearing 12 point, times new Roman, font style 51 style, etc.
If I go back in the formating and then font it looks like everything is checked and I'm wondering if they are all suppose to be or not. 

Thanks,
Lori

Hi Lori.

Which software are you working with?
I suspect that you need to do a control+a to select your entire book before doing this. 
If so, the manual should explain this.

Thanks.

Hi all,
When I'm arrowing down through a text I here "font Style" and then various numbers. I've followed the steps from the manual to standardize font, but maybe I'm missing something. I'll paste the steps that I followed below. Any help would be appreciated. 

6.Standardize font.
Standardize font to Times New Roman size 12 with title and chapter headings at 16
and bolded. Then set scale, spacing and position of font to normal by doing the 

following.
Open the font formatting menu by typing the following key sequence: alt o f
(the alt key, followed by the lower-case o key, followed by the lower-case f key)
On the tab for Character spacing, set the Scale to 100%, the spacing to normal, and
the position to normal. Special note: You don't have to use Times New Roman as
the specific font. Other common straightforward fonts, like Georgia, Arial, Verdana
and Garamond are fine. Special note: because your Chapter headings will lose their
formatting, if they had any, they will be optimized in the next step for best conversion
