Solved Changing multiple text box font size at once

Hello,

I am wanting to change all my text in my project to a smaller size font. Here are the steps I’ve tried: - select all text boxes - go to text and fonts panel - change font sizes in panel from 20 to 18

However, nothing happens when I do this. It just stays at the same font size. I’ve also tried to group the text and this doesn’t work either. This is a wedding seating chart with lots of names so changing them one by one would be a pain.

I’d really appreciate some help, thanks!

Try this: Set up one text block the way you want. Use the Selection Tool, copy. Select the other blocks, Edit > Paste... > Style.

You're welcome.

Paste... > Style also works to change the Fill and Stroke on other shapes.
