Welcome to Apple Discussions

Create a page that looks just the way you want it, with 25 lines in the typeface and point size you want to use. Adjust the top and bottom margins to fit those 25 lines. Save as template. Always use that template and do not change type size or line spacing.

Hi, Walt. Thank you for the welcome. 🙂

I want Courier 12, 1 inch margins, 25 lines per page.

Is there a way to do this and keep the margins at 1 inch?

Set 25 lines in Courier 12, set your margins, and in Text Inspector adjust the Line Spacing until the 25 lines fit the page.

okay... I did something that made it 25 lines per page on some of the pages but 24 on others. :P

How do I select the entire document so that I can put the correct format in all of it?

THX!

Thanks, Walt. I think I've figure it out... except... I don't know how to turn off the orphans and widows.
