You should get the book "Programming the Macintosh II" by David a Wilson.
It comes with source code examples on how to do what you want. This book
looks like its just viewgrafs from a seminar he gave but the source is usefull.

I think what you need to do is save three parts of the style records 
seperatly. Below is an example.

		To save a style record:
		
		styleRecHdl := GetStylHandle(textH);
		styleTableHdl := styleRecHdl^^.styleTab;
		lhTableHdl := styleRecHdl^^.lhTab;
		
		To restore a style record:
		SetStylHandle(styleRecHdl, textH);
		styleRecHdl^^.styleTab := styleTableHdl;
		styleRecHdl^^.lhTab := lhTableHdl;
