+- **Done:** character-style Auto-leading resets propagate to style users while retaining local leading overrides. Sparse definitions remain sparse, native serialization retains explicit Auto, and the Character Styles override marker stays consistent.

 - **Improved:** mixed paragraph alignments leave the existing Paragraph/Properties alignment buttons unselected; choosing an alignment still uses the range-aware command. Headless regressions, full integration CI and visual review pass. Other mixed paragraph fields remain; estimate unchanged.
 - **Improved (#1258):** full font names (name ID 4) resolve the face instead of falling back, and Missing Fonts searches recognize the same aliases. Synthetic regressions cover loaded/cataloged fonts, localized names, real-family precedence and variable default faces. Windows font-service activation still needs reporter QA; estimate unchanged.
