Pages changed the decimal point

I live in Europe (Italy).

My MAC is set to English (UK) but grouping is set to "." and decimals to "," as this is the standard here.

In Numbers, and pretty much everywhere this is all ok.

Now, today I have copied a table from Numbers into Pages and noticed numbers in cells were now using the US standard (that is "," for grouping and "." for decimals).

The settings in System Preferences is set right.

Numbers still works nicely right.

Any idea why it changed by itself and how to make it stay the way I set it in System Preferences?

Hi eeWee,

In Pages 7 and Numbers 5, you can change Language & Region for individual documents. That over-rides System Preferences for each document.

Change those settings and let us know if that works.

Regards,

Ian.
