Thanks, Panchdara,

actually I can't think of having imported the text from elsewhere but I cannot 100% exclude. If you are saying it is impossible to

But so what, Husky also pointed out a way to replace the \C7; entries. I did it the old fashioned way, using "vi" in a oneliner command rather than clicking

Rich text escape.
Color 7.
\H5 Heigth 5.
