- macmost.com/e-2906 You don't need to change the font every time you open Pages. Instead you can create your own template that is set up like you want and start with that every time.

You’re so easy to understand. Thank you, thank you thank you. You just saved my bacon.
Dude, you're so knowledgable. I save many of your videos to watch later and perform the tasks you teach while I watch. Great many thanks.
Great video...after watching it, I set about to create my templates for various reports and documents that I produce. Your videos make my life easier every time!
I knew the power of thumbnails for pages and keynote... But changing your PDF..... This is wonderful.. Thank you.. 😊😊😊
Thank you this video is useful 😊😊😊
Templates are very useful. They make everything go much smoother. I started using templates in college when I realized how much they helped me with persnickety professors who were often not on the same page as to how they wanted a paper formatted. They all had different preferences for TOCs, margins, etc. I had two English professors (my major) who even had radically different ideas of proper grammar and syntax. Keep in mind this was in the mid 90s when the internet was a very new thing, and we were forbidden from using internet citations. It was a different world. But one thing that hasn't changed is the fact that templates still give you an edge.
For my business, I have a letterhead template, including all the elements of a typical letter AND my signature image pre-printed in the bottom. It saves me a lot of time when I export it to a pdf, so I don’t have to then open it on preview and sign it there.
A very useful and informative video tutorial today! Thank you, Gary! 👏🏻❤️

These settings can number in the hundreds for publishing. I learned them creating technical manuals for a customer. Some of the more obscure settings were less than intuitive, particularly regarding styles, which is the most powerful part of the program.
I have been wanting for you to make a video about it
Thanks for yhis video Gary! Is there a way of importing existing text from a .txt /.rtf or MS word document into Pages? I guess I could open them and copy and paste into Pages, but was wondering if there's a more direct way. Thank you!
"Well slap my ass and call me Susan!" I can feel my IQ going up a few points every time I watch your videos. Thank you Gary!
Thanks Gary. I have been using many personal templates for years and it’s great. One question bugs me though. If I update one of my templates to improve it (which happens often), is there a way to convert previous docs to this new template? For now, all I managed to do was to copy the text from the old doc and paste it into the new template using “paste & match style” but it’s time consuming since I have many different preset styles on each template so I have to check the whole document to adjust the styles. Hope my question makes sense.
No, no way to have it apply to existing docs.
Pages is great. Granted I am saying this w/o any real Word experience. So I can never understand when ppl say MS Word is more powerful? What the heck are they doing? Pages has a few annoying little quarks, but powerful for sure!
When I was using Windows, I set my default font as SF Pro Display.
But when I am now using macOS, I feel satisfied with Helvetica Neue. 😅
Hi, is there a way to insert FIELD into a template that if I modify one it replicate in all of the same FIELDS in my document?
Kinda. You can create a Table (maybe a 1x1 table if that is all you need). Then another table. Then you can have a formula in the cell of the second table that references the cell in the first table. Now when you change the cell in the first table, both will change.
I guess to Share a template with someone else, I would open my template doc (picked from the Template Chooser), and then Save and Send that blank doc to them. Then they can open and Save as Template?
Sure. Or just save as a template file and cut out some steps.
04:30 thank me later...
