I was about to mention this when your post appeared. :)

Yes, but not quite.  The correct place is after .PRINTSTYLE but
before .START.  PRINTSTYLE wipes out any family, point size,
leading, etc. directives that come before it and replaces them with
default formatting.  Therefore, global changes to a doc's type
parameters are only respected if they come after PRINTSTYLE (and
before START), as described here:
