Selecting a Default Character Style

Customizing your Default Character Style

1. Go to Settings → Design Styles → Character Styles.
2. Select the character style you want to set as the default and click Edit.
3. Check the option Default Style.
4. Click Apply
5. The style will now have an indicator shown on the list, marking it as the default.

From now on, any new text frame added to a page is automatically formatted with this style.

Set your default to the most common text formatting you expect to use in your book — body copy, captions, or another frequently used style. You can change it at any time.
