How to create predefined table in Pages

Hello,

I frequently use a specific table structure in Pages and often need to use it across different documents. Until now, I’ve been copying and pasting these tables, but since I’ve started automating some tasks with Automator, I’m wondering if I can do something similar in Pages.

Is there a way to create a predefined table template in Pages?

Thanks.

Create the table you want to re-use. Enter any data (or column headings, etc…) that will want to re-use. Format as desired.

Then, save the file as a template (File > Save as Template…). Pages will offer the option of including your file in the template chooser.

Thank you. I know it, but my goal is not to create a page template. I want to easily insert a predefined table structure at any point in any document.

Currently, I open the file I designated as a template, select the table, and copy it to the desired location, but I want to speed up this process. I am looking whether I can achieve this with a script or macro.

I use tens of e -books (hundreds of pages each) using Pages, but the “table” to be put in the documents is made on Numbers and paste Pages documents.

By making the “table” of this NUMBERS document in advance, it is enough to copy and paste on Pages documents to adjust the appearance. Isn’t that what you are looking for?
