My reading of the function description in the manual tells me that this function only clears attributes that have already been applied while writing text earlier onto a page, so that the subsequent text written has no text attributes I have never needed to use this function in my work, but I would expect it not to affect any text already in the PDF, as you have confirmed.

I agree with Tim.

There are some other functions in the library as well...

only working on changes made on the fly.
