How do I change the default font for foot/end notes in Pages 09?

The fonts for notes in Pages seems fixed to Helvetica, even when the font for the body has been changed. I've been able to save the font for the body by saving it as a tempate, but it doesn't seem to work for the notes. Any help?

looked several times in the index.xml describing the docs.
A new note descriptor starts with :
<sf:p sf:style="kSFWPFootnoteTextStyleIdentifier">
If we change something to the note attributes the app replace the default style by a custom one. For instance, it may be :
<sf:p sf:style="SFWPParagraphStyle-68">
My first attempt was to insert a font descriptor in the default style.
Alas, for the app, such descriptor is pure garbage and it delete it.
Second attempt was to try to find the descriptor of the font used by default.
At last, I discovered that the app use in fact the font described by the resouirce named : FONT_Helvetica in the Blank template.
I choose to use HoeflerText-Regular so I applied this scheme.
(1) navigate to the file
Macintosh HD:Applications:iWork '09:Pages.app:Contents:Resources:Templates:Blank.template:Contents:Resources:fr .lproj:Localizable.strings
(2) to play safety, duplicate it
(3) drag it on the Desktop bercause the System don't allow us to edit it.
(4) When it's on the desktop, if you installed the developers tools double click the file's icon.
If you didn't, drag & drop its icon on TextEdit's one.
(5) Near the bottom, you will find the line :
"FONT_Helvetica" = "Helvetica";
edit it as :
"FONT_Helvetica" = "HoeflerText-Regular";
(6) Save the file on the Desktop,
(7) Move it back in its original folder.
I described the process for the French language (which use fr.lproj)
For other languages, replace fr.lproj by the item of this liost matching your language :
da.lproj
de.lproj
en.lproj
es.lproj
fi.lproj
fr.lproj
it.lproj
ja.lproj
ko.lproj
nl.lproj
no.lproj
pl.lproj
pt_PT.lproj
pt.lproj
ru.lproj
sv.lproj
zh_CN.lproj
zh_TW.lproj
Have fun.
Oops, of course Pages is supposed to be closed when you do that.

How do I change the default text for when I open up pages?

How do I change the default text for when I open up pages?

Colin,
You may substitute any text you like for the "Placeholder Text", as it is called, in Pages. Click on the existing placeholder text and type something more to your liking. Do this in as many places as your particular template of interest demands. Then, Format > Advanced > Define as Placeholder Text. Lastly, File > Save as Template.
Now that you have defined a Custom Template to your liking, you can go to Pages Preferences and under the General tab's first section, define the new custom template as your default for each new document.
Regards,
Jerry

How can I change the default font for the Text Tool in CS5?

Does anyone know of a SIMPLE way to change the default font in CS 5. I can't believe how difficult Adobe makes this. I have spent numerous time on the internet trying to solve this problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Thanks Charles, I'm not sure where preferences are, I wish photoshop would
look at this, there should be a simple way to set font preferences. Perhaps
CS 7 will offer a solution. Thanks for your help

How do you change the default font in Illustrator CS5?

I have upgraded my Illustrator to CS5 and my default font has changed to a strange font. In Photoshop and InDesign, I was told that all you have to do is change the font in the Character menu to the font that you wish to be set as "default" and it will be the font that you always start with.
NOTE: Does this mean that if I use a different font in a different document, the font will stay that font unless I change it back? Isn't there a way to make a particular font the font that I would always what I start with? All this setup means, is that the "default font" will always be whatever the last font that was being used was. There has to be a way to make a default font that I will always start with no matter what the last font that was being used was.
Illustrator gives you no option on font type, unless a file is open. Then, if you change the font and close the file, next time you start a file, it will go back to what is was to begin with. There has to be a way to change the default font for all of these programs to where the font always stays the same unless you change it. Mine is just set to use a weird font that I would probably never use.
I just never thought it would be that big of a deal to change default settings for the font.

Okay, I basically made three different documents and I made sure that I had everything chosen in each. I then saved the three to that file and they now appear in the list:
Settings for all 3:
72psi, 150psi and 300psi
Rulers Visable
Times New Roman
12pt
14.4pt
I then went in and started three new documents. I used the three different New Document Profile's that I made and they all had Rulers, their sizes were correct, but the font stayed Myriad Pro. Did I miss anything? And, Yes, I did change the font and the setting before I saved them in the New Document Profile.
One other thing, I did create a file in the folder, but it was spelled incorrectly. I then went into the folder, erased it and made a second. Then, I went to open it in IllustratorCS5 and it was still listed. I went to the file and it wasn't there anymore, but it was still listed in the New Document Profile. Is there a way to get it off of the list or is all I have to do is restart Illustrator?

Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"? (OSX 10.10)

Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"?
I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.
The preferences menu only lets me change the conversation font.

Hi,
As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.

How do you change the default setting for RTF documents from TextEdit to MS Word

How do you change the default setting for RTF documents from TextEdit to MS Word, I download forms from the Canadian government and they use RTF as a standard, they are supposed to open as MS Word documents (Yes I have Office for MAC 2011) but when download the document it goes to TextEdit which messes up the form format. I can down load it right click and go "open with" MS Word but how can I get the default chnaged to save this step.

Thanks I knew this, I like Safari as I want to keep everything MAC, but if I use Firefox the documents open in MS Word straight away, I was just curious if there was some setting I could change?
In Firefox > Preferences, click the Applications tab. If RTF is there, use the pulldown menu in the Action column to pick MS Word. If RTF is not there, there are instructions here for how to add file types.

How do I change the default properties for Replace(Ins)?

Acrobat Pro X
Comment tools: Annotations
All tool icons EXCEPT Replace(Ins) show "Tool Default Properties" as an option when right-clicked. When I right-click a particular replacement in the document and select "Properties," there is no option to set current as default.
So, how do I change the default properties for this annotation tool? I need to change the Author and the color.
Thanks,
Nancy

How can I change the default application for a content type?

Running a version of Linux, the default application for PDF files is "Use Document Viewer (default)", which appears to be /usr/bin/evince. I'd much prefer to use /usr/bin/okular; how can I change the default. This question is NOT about how to change the function that is automatically applied when I access a link, in this case "Preview in Firefox", but rather to the default application that I can select when I download a file being viewed in Firefox's previewer.

This is real progress, a solution to the problem as posted. The command:
xdg-mime default okularApplication_pdf.desktop application/pdf
makes okular the default.
However when I added okular to the choices for applications in:
* Edit>Preferences>Applications>PDF
the popup box that appears when I click Download on the preview page changed. The pulldown menu that appears next to "Open with" used to have 3 entries:
# Document Viewer (default)
# Acroread
# Other
Now it has only 2:
# Okular (Default)
# Other
I'd like it to read
# Okular (Default)
# Acroread
# Other
How can I control the entries in this pulldown list?
Also, how can I make the default choice in the popup box be
* Open With <whatever> , rather than
* Save File ?

How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from email?

How can I change the default setting for downloading photos from emails I receive? It shows the default as Photoshop Elements 4.0 and is not supported by this system. That was my last computer!!

That has nothing to do with styles nor Pages, it is a System/Printer Driver setting.
You can experiment to see if the Printer Settings stick with your document, but in the past this has not worked.

cor-el, what am I looking for in '''content-prefs.sqlite'''?

Anyone know how to change the default font for the new pages? Apparently it does not even come up when I search the 'Help' section of Pages. The level of incompetence in this new version seems breathtaking

I cannot find how to change the default font in the new Pages. It does not appear in the Help area when I search for it. I am never sing Helvetica for my standard documents and cannot seem to change it. What am I missing? And why does Pages help not have an easy answer?

You open a blank template and change the font to you liking. Remember to also get all the styles changed with new font. Then Save As Template. Now you have a template with the font you like.

How do I change the default setting for font size when emailing?

I have Firefox 3.6.13. The default now is 10 and I'd like it 12.

Firefox has no email features, it is just a web browser. Any email settings will be part of the email service that you are using, you will need to contact the support for the email service to see how to change the default font size in emails.

How do you change the Default Font setting for a HP 6310 all-in-one?

I've had this printer for a couple of years and has worked great, but just recently, the main body of text is shadowed, like a shadow font. If i print from MS word and select my font it prints great, but the default font for printing emails and anything off of the web has this shadow

It has no style so seems to be beyond the user's control.
I've tried changing it to something else and redefining the Free Form style, but it doesn't apply when you create a new comment.
The closest you'll get to what you want is to have a Style that you like and apply it to every comment when you open it, using an FKey shortcut.

You can only assign one default application to one type of document.
