Drowning

There was a post in the RoboHelp forums about an ExtendScript that will remove inline formatting. I asked the author, Marino Den Baes, if he could share the script and he did.

Let me just say that if I become an "ExtendScript Guru" in the future, it was today, 2/22/2017, when I began that journey.
