Keeping font overrides in crossreferece <$paratext>




Hello,

I've got a cross-reference format

	<$paranum> <$paratext>

which duplicates the entire paragraph being referenced
(the paragraph being a numbered figure caption, in case
it matters).  The problem is that I've got a few
symbol-font characters in the figure caption.  In the
cross-reference, the caption is not perfectly
duplicated because symbol-font override is stripped
away.  All characters take on the font of the paragraph
in which the cross-reference is created.  (Let's refer
to this paragraph as the "host" paragraph).

I can highlight the cross-reference and force it to be
symbol-font, but that would display the whole
(duplicated) caption in symbol-font.  In the caption
being cross-referenced, it is only a few selected
characters that should be in symbol-font.

I tried highlighting all of the host paragraph and
applying the font "As Is", but that doesn't take; it
always reverts back to the font defined for the
paragraph.  Same result if I highlight just the
cross-reference and apply As-Is-font.

Is there any way to make the cross-reference respect
the font overrides in the caption being referenced?

Thanks.

Fred
