Registration text color by default

Registration text color by default

(OP)
Hi!!

I open a new document, write any text and I have the text in registration color by default. So I must go to swatches and turn registration color into black.

How can I change this option to get black text by default? (shapes are black by default).

Indesign CS3 - WIN

Thanks.  

RE: Registration text color by default


...launch indesign, without any files open, reveal the swatches palette, press the T symbol at the top, change to black swatch below...

...quit and re-launch indesign to see if it sticks...

RE: Registration text color by default

...it is also worth creating another paragraph style other than the default one...

...also do this without a file open...

...there are technical reasons for this, when opening a file on another machine, can default a typeface to that users indesign default paragraph style if you have changed your indesign one...

...by changing the default to your own, you avoid this, as that custom paragraph style is carried over to the machine...

Thanks for yours advices, but nothing worked. Finally I had to choose for reset the preferences (holding down CTRL+ALT+Shift while Indesign loads)and now work perfect.

Anyway, thanks again.
