Bring up a new blank document, Pages remembers the previous document type you chose. So if you always use a blank document, that's what will be offered. So you'd just have to open Pages, then go to last visible item and press VO-Space to choose it.

Before beginning to type your document, you would show the styles drawer (Cmd-Shift-T) where you would set hot keys for the various styles. These hot keys are F1-F8. You would then set a hotspot on the Paragraph Styles table. Then you stop interacting, navigate right twice and interact with the scroll area and the layout area. In your document, you just have to be in the paragraph to change its style by pressing the hot key. You can check the style by pressing VO-Cmd-Number where number is the hotspot number. > > I would then want to check i had the formatting correct and that there were > no spelling errors. To check spelling, use Cmd-Semicolon. Each misspelled word will be highlighted in turn. I hope this makes things a bit clearer.
