How do I change the spacing between lines in Pages 5.5.2? Single spacing prints more like double spacing.

In the Format panel under the Text Style tab, there is a ▸ Spacing category. Click it to open, and you will have a selector that defaults to Lines, and to the right, the ability to set your spacing in decimal values. In addition to Lines, you also have At Least, Exactly, and Between capability. You can even set exact line height in points. Check that your Before Paragraph, and After Paragraph settings are correct for your needs.

How can I change the space between a checkbox and text all at one time? I have a lot of checkboxes in my form.

How can I change the space between a checkbox and text all at one time? I have a lot of checkboxes in my form.

Okay, I haven't found a way to add an extra space using Find/replace, but you might be able to add some text wrap to the check boxes that will push the text away from them.
Open Find/Replace and click the Object tab.
Click the Specify attributes to find button to the right of the Find Object Format: field.
Under Basic Attributes, choose Stroke and then the Black swatch (assuming the black swatch is applied to the strokes of your check boxes). If there are no other stand-alone objects in your form with a Black stroke, this should be all you need. (If there are Black strokes on your table cells, they will be ignored.)
Click OK
Click the Specify attributes to change button to the right of the Change Object Format: field.
Under Basic Attributes, choose Text Wrap & Other > Text Wrap > Type: > Wrap around bounding box (2nd button from left)
Under Offset, set a Right offset at the distance you'd like to add (I don't know what units you use, but the 3-5 points might work for your purposes...might take some trial-and-error to get it where you want)
Click OK
Click Change All

How do I change the default program to open Pages docs to the old (4.3) version instead of the new one (5.0)?

How do I change the default program to open Pages docs to the old (4.3) version instead of the new one (5.0)? When I do what Apple said and go to a Pages file in finder and select "get info" then select "Pages 4.3" and "change all" it just defaults to the new one even though I'd selected the old one. Do I need to completely uninstall the new version of Pages or is there another work around because the new version of Pages comes dreadfully short of the features I need that are included in the old one?

HOWEVER, if you modified a document in 5.0, 4.3 can't open it. You'll have to use Time Machine to replace the modified version with an earlier version that was last modified in 4.3.
Actually there is a workaround.
If you open the file in Pages 5, it can then be exported on Pages 0.9 format to another folder. I had to do this as the document was only in iCloud and couldn't be recoverd by Time Machine.
Worked for me!

Hello there cmkoko,
From the Pages help menu,
Each language has a different spelling dictionary. To make sure that the correct language is selected, select the text you want to work with, click Inspector in the toolbar, click the Text button, and then click More. Choose a language from the Language pop-up menu.

How do I reduce the space between lines in a JTextComponent?

I've searched pretty thoroughly in this forum and can't find an answer.
My editor displays text fine, but I'm not happy with the space between lines. Is there any way I can reduce the overall height of each line just to close the gap a little?

Okay, I've got it worked out. I reckon it will work for my purposes although I have yet to test it in my app.
The trick is to use a negative value for the StyleConstants.setSpaceAbove(spacing2, -5.0f);The code below shows a comparison between a text pane with default spacing values and a text pane with that -5 space above value.
import java.awt.*;
import javax.swing.*;
import javax.swing.text.*;
public class TestTextPane extends JFrame
public TestTextPane()
super("Text Pane Test: LineSpacing");
JPanel panel = new JPanel();
setContentPane( panel );
JTextPane textPane = new JTextPane();
textPane.setFont( new Font("monospaced", Font.PLAIN, 12) );
textPane.setText( "abcdefghijklmnop\none\ntwo" );
SimpleAttributeSet spacing = new SimpleAttributeSet();
StyleConstants.setLineSpacing(spacing, 0.0f);
StyleConstants.setFirstLineIndent(spacing, 0.0f);
StyleConstants.setSpaceAbove(spacing, 0.0f);
StyleConstants.setSpaceBelow(spacing, 0.0f);
StyleConstants.setUnderline(spacing, false);
StyleConstants.setItalic(spacing, false);
StyleConstants.setBold(spacing, false);
//this line sets the attributes for the text specified by the first two arguments.
textPane.getStyledDocument().setParagraphAttributes(0, textPane.getDocument().getLength(), spacing, true);
JScrollPane scrollPane = new JScrollPane( textPane );
scrollPane.setPreferredSize( new Dimension( 200, 200 ) );
//set up the comparison
JTextPane textPane2 = new JTextPane();
textPane2.setFont( new Font("monospaced", Font.PLAIN, 12) );
textPane2.setText( "abcdefghijklmnop\none\ntwo" );
SimpleAttributeSet spacing2 = new SimpleAttributeSet();
StyleConstants.setLineSpacing(spacing2, 0.0f);
StyleConstants.setFirstLineIndent(spacing2, 0.0f);
StyleConstants.setSpaceAbove(spacing2, -5.0f);
StyleConstants.setSpaceBelow(spacing2, 0.0f);
StyleConstants.setUnderline(spacing2, false);
StyleConstants.setItalic(spacing2, false);
StyleConstants.setBold(spacing2, false);
//this line sets the attributes for the text specified by the first two arguments.
textPane2.getStyledDocument().setParagraphAttributes(0, textPane2.getDocument().getLength(), spacing2, true);
JScrollPane scrollPane2 = new JScrollPane( textPane2 );
scrollPane2.setPreferredSize( new Dimension( 200, 200 ) );
panel.setLayout(new FlowLayout());
panel.add( scrollPane );
panel.add( scrollPane2);
public static void main(String[] args)

How do you change the back ground of a page?

This doesn't seem to be working. I go to the page, bring up the inspector, go to page > layout > choose color fill, then use the color wheel, but the background doesn't change. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

If you want to change the background colour of a page, then you need to open the Inspector and go to Page and then Layout instead. If you do this you can change both the background colour of the page and the page colour itself, which can be two different things.
Sometimes you need to double click for the colour to change.

How do I change the contrast between foreground and background in CS4 workspace menus?

Everyone at my agency who has upgraded from CS3 to CS4 is dismayed to discover that they can not read any tabs on the workspace except the highlighted one. The foreground and background colors are simply too close together for anyone who doesn't have very good eyesight to use 8 hours a day, and if you have any form of color blindness, just forget it. Is there any way to change the foreground and background colors in the workspace itself?

I don't believe it's possible. It would be like altering the ribbon in Office 2007 to make it work like Office 2003. This is a built-in function and from the upcoming betas in the Labs it appears they are going to continue this trend. Only thing I can really suggest you do is submit a feature request: https://www.adobe.com/cfusion/mmform/index.cfm?name=wishform . Outside of that there is not much you can do.
One other thing has come to mind but it only works for the document area and not other menus. Instead of opening documents in the tabs in one window you can click on Window at the top and choose Cascade to view each file in its own window and go back to Expose for fast-switching between windows.

How Can I Change the Size of My Home Page So That It Fills the Screen?

I have a PowerBook G4. Up until a couple of weeks ago when I opened Safari the home page filled the screen. Something has happened and now it fills only a portion of the screen. I can move the page around, change the size slightly by using the green button next to the minimizing button, but nothing I do will enlarge it to fill the screen. I have gone to View and Preferences, but find nothing to resolve this. Please help!

You're welcome Maureen. Glad I could help.
Thanks for the and Aloha from Big Island.

How can I change the default program to open Pages files in Finder from Pages 5.0 to Pages '09?

I’ve tried. It seems Mavericks can’t tell the difference between the programs or won’t let me.
Message was edited by: WWGreaves

Open DIsk Utility and in the toolbar select Disk Image. The file selector will open and you'll have to do three things: 1) just as with any file, name it and point the file selector to where you want it to be saved, 2) near the bottom you'll see name - type iWork 2013 and 3) below that select the image size. Click on size, choose custom and type 1500 MB then click on the Create button.
Some time will pass and then you'll see an external disk pop up on your desktop and/or the Finder window sidebar. Drag the three programs into it and eject it like any other external disk. Now delete the programs from your applications window.
Where ever it was you pointed the file selector to you'll see the file you created. Double click on it and the disk image will mount again.

How do you change the background color of a page in projects

I'm making a new photo book in projects. the theme I've selected has black pages. I would prefer white pages but can not change the background or I would like to change the theme without having to start all over again. I have no change theme button in the upper right hand corner. Any suggestions?

Don't know what version of iPhoto you're using but in iPhoto 8 (09) we have this to change the background in the Folio theme:
Wereas in iPhoto 9 and later we have this:
If you don't that in the version you're using try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder (Snow Leopard and Earlier).
or with Lion and Mt. Lion delete the contents the User/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
Data/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
3 - reboot, launch iPhoto and try again.
NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and press the Return key - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
If you're running Mavericks, 10.9, go to your Home folder and use the View ➙ Show View Options menu to bring the this window:
where you can check the Show Library Folder checkbox.

If you want all your pages to have a black background, make that background object a Section Master object too.

How can I remove the Endnote Separator Line from Pages?

Hello!
I am creating a book using Pages and have lots of footnotes (Currently running Pages 5.2.2).. There is an Endnote Line Separator which I am trying to remove.
Does anyone know how to remove this line? We don't want it in the final design & are trying to root it out before exporting the whole document to Adobe In-Design.
Here is what the Endnote Line Separator looks like:
Many thanks!!
