Hello procuro,


To change the font in Pages on iPad you'll want to use the steps below:


1. Select the text you want to change—or tap a text box, shape, or table cell—then tap the Format button.
If you don’t see text controls, tap Cell or Text.
2. Do any of the following:
• Apply a different paragraph style: Tap the style name below Paragraph Style, then tap a new paragraph style (scroll to see more). You can’t apply a paragraph style to text in a table cell.
• Change the font: Tap Font, then tap a new font. To see more options for the font, tap the More Info button next to the font name, then tap a format (condensed, light, or semibold, for example).
• Apply bold, italic, underline, or strikethrough: Tap any of the buttons below Font.
• Change the size: Tap the Adjustable button next to Size to decrease or increase the font size, or tap the font size and enter a new value.

Text controls in the Format menu for setting paragraph and character styles, font, size, and color.
