Since version 2023.1.0, it is now possible to specify, box by box or even tag by tag, whether the end-user has the right to use fonts, colors, and character sizes beyond the paragraph and character styles present in the box or tag.
This allows for more combinations of fonts, sizes, and colors to be offered to the user than rules based solely on styles would allow, and thus increases the possibilities for creation.
Of course, rules for applying font overrides and style application can coexist.
To use these features, the Wedia extension must be installed in Adobe InDesign.

They will appear in the list with a specific name, and before tagging the text box or zone, the name of the defined field (title, text, etc.) must be specified :
