Copy and paste text styles in Pages on iPhone
An easy way to make the text in your document look consistent is to copy just the style of selected text, then apply that style to other text.
Copy and paste a text style
Do one of the following:
Select the text with the style you want to copy. The style of the first character in the text selection is what’s copied. Select carefully — if the first character in your selection is a white space, the text where you paste the style is replaced by white space.
Place the insertion point in the text with the style you want to copy. Everything that you would see if you were to begin typing at the insertion point is copied. That includes any paragraph style, character style and style overrides applied to that text.
Tap Style, then tap Copy Style.
You may need to tap
to see Style.Select other text where you want to apply the style, or place the insertion point in text, tap Style, then tap Paste Style.
If you place the insertion point in a paragraph or select full paragraphs, text boxes or shapes with text, existing paragraph or character styles are replaced with what you paste.
If you select one or more partial paragraphs (for example, one or more words in a paragraph), or a full paragraph and part of another, only character styles and not paragraph styles are applied to the selected text.
