But then they will not be English files, but Spanish files.

So it seems to me that your task is to convert the look and feel of the 
Spanish files to match the look and feel of the English files (which 
someone prefers).  So you could think of the problem as changing the 
markup in the Spanish files rather than as changing the text in the 
English files.  If there is a consistent style in both sets, then you 
should be able to formulate a set of rules to convert the Spanish files. 
  If the English files are each idiosyncratic, then I do not envy you.

change the style of multiple files.]
