Paragraph syle problem. Typing letter "r" assigns paragraph style instead of showing letter "r".

Typing letter "r" applies a style sheet instead of actually showing letter "r". Can't type any "r" in the document. Can type uppercase "R" with shift key. But not with caps lock. I removed all innocent paragraph styles and attached a resulting InDesing file and a PDF. Thank you.

I don't know what happened but you have an invisible r in the shortcut field of the “ChapterPageText_12on18-sa12” style. You can fix the problem by assigning another shortcut (does not matter which one you choose) and the problem disappears. You can even delete the new shortcut if you want.

Solved! Thank you. Much appreciated. I have no idea how it got there. But I know where to look if it happens again.
