[QUOTE="rubaiyat, post: 1627177, member: 240393"] The swatches in the Color Picker are not for Pages or any specific app they are for the particular OSX User and available to all applications for that User. There is no simple or reliable way to copy and transfer swatches between Users or Macs. If there was the new swatches would replace all existing swatches. You could make up a color bar of shapes in Pages that could be saved in a file, which could be transferred and then those colors sampled from the Color Picker on the new Account/Mac. Not a very quick or easy method and it comes with all sorts of potentials for mistakes. If you are using Pages 5 that has Object Styles so you could set up some Object Styles, Paragraph and Character Styles and save those in a Corporate Template. You need to build up all the details though because any changes can't be retrospectively refreshed to multiple selections or documents. [/QUOTE]
