You can adjust the number of records displayed per 'page' through the MarcEditor preferences which can be accessed through the Edit → Preferences menu option from the MarcEditor, or through the 'Settings' icon on the opening screen of MarcEdit.

Within the MarcEditor preferences you can adjust the font and font size within the MarcEditor. You can also set your character encoding defaults. If you navigate to File Associations within the Preferences window, you can select Associate (`*.mrc`) files with the MarcBreaker and Associate (`*.mrk`) files with the MarcEditor. Setting these file associations will make it easy to break `.mrc` files and edit `.mrk` files.

## Behavior when you reset your preferences and other popup windows

When you click Ok to reset preferences, there is a chance that the popup window for Preferences and/or even MarcEdit main menu will close. If the MarcEdit main menu closes, sometimes it will reopen. If it does not, then click on MarcEdit again on your desktop to reopen the application. It should be noted that not all popup windows will close automatically such as Find, Replace, or the MarcValidator. However, the Select Records for Edit temporary editor will close if you click Save. These idiosyncracies for each will be covered in their upcoming episodes.
