Changing default gutter size for text frames

[gscphoenix]

Our college newspaper recently changed our page sizes and when we recreated the InDesign template for the new sizes we had to reduce our gutter sizes. While they are the new reduced size on the actual page, 0p6, the text frames do not automatically change. They remain the old size, 1p0. I was wondering if there was a way to make the text frame gutter size default to the new size. We can change the gutter size manually (right-click, Text Frame Options, and then reduce the size; but that can be rather time consuming.) So, any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Under Layout>Layout Adjustment Make sure that's tick on before you make the change

Have you considered making a Master or 2 with the desired gutters. and applying that (them) to the other pages?

Using OSX 10.3.9 on a G4

Thanks a lot guys. Making the changes in the Master was spot on. Thanks again for saving us so much time.
