Is it possible to set a Search/Replace process such that the replacing word has different font attributes like size and color? I have a largish document that I must edit to remove first and second person reference. Searching and replacing pronouns will give me a jump start but I will have to carefully edit the results and changing font attributes would be a good way to ensure the changes are grammatically correct. By reverting the font changes after corrections, I should be able to tell if I've checked them all.
