Match

All/Selection to Default Style: matches the selected text (or the whole document if there is no selection) to the default style as defined in the Styles pane of Preferences.

All/Selection to Most Common Style: matches the selected text to the most common font family and paragraph style found in that selection; if there is no selection, all styles in the document will be ‘simplified’ or ‘flattened’ to the most common font style and paragraph style.

All/Selection to Style at Text Cursor: propagates the font family and paragraph style found at the insertion point throughout selected text, or throughout the whole document if there is no selection.

Remove All Styles: removes all font styles and paragraph styles throughout the entire document, leaving OS X’s default style (Helvetica 12, etc.). Also removes all text tables, list attributes, and attachments.

The above command is equivalent to the Make Plain Text followed by Make Rich Text sequence in Text Edit, which people often use to strip web text of all styles and attachments.
