Hi, To set global preferences and noted in the preferences docs: Close all docs. Tools > Preferences. Set all the preferences as desired. Then, all new documents from now on will inherit these preferences. Existing ones will retain what was set when they were created. Re-saving these will inherit the new settings. Cheers, Peter
