Change default font Comment

So I need to add comments to my pages document but the default font for anything added to a comments note is Lucida Grande 9.0 pt...

If I want to change that to something smaller and more space efficient then I have to change it in...every...single...note...

There is a post about how to change this directly in the XML file within the Pages package bundle itself, but I'm guessing this was for iWork 08 because I don't recognise anything once I'm in there...

Any clues...

Many thanks

Can I just say, there is a WAY WAY quicker & easier fix than this. Open a keynote doc. Add your comment. Format it the way you like - colour fill, font style, size, whatever. Click out of the comment & then single click on it to select it.

Then go to Format-->Advanced --> Define comment for all masters.

CAVEAT: When you are working with a brand new master, created by someone else & now imported onto your system, for example, you will have to set your default comment as above to be used with that master. But quite honestly, small price to pay I think!

Voila! 🙂

Mum,

You may have missed that this was a Pages question, not a Keynote question.
