Q: Default font in Pages
Greetings,
Having spent half an hour or so checking various preference panes, I am now really curious if there is a way to set a default font in Pages other than Helvetica 12. I am almost sure (don't really remember now) there was an easy way to do that in the previous version, but now either I am lost in this new modern world or it is gone, which is really shame, because I sorta dislike the default font.
Thanks.

Open a new document and adjust the settings to how you want (includes page margins, font colour, text etc etc). Then 'File>Save As Template...' This will allow you to save the template under the heading 'My Templates'.
Now here's how to set it as the default template. Go to 'Preferences' and under 'General' you can either select a new document to show the template chooser, alternatively you can 'Choose' which template you want to default to. Select your desired template and all new documents will now open with this template.
